The Face Reveals the Heart

It is said there is no thought that is good in the mind but soon looks good in the face. Heart qualities are artists that work, indeed, behind the screen, yet at last they strike through the canvas and become manifest in the facial illumination. Contrariwise, in men long inured to vice and crime, sinful thoughts within have so disposed of the facial tissue without, that the countenance has in it something of the wolf, and something of the imp, and something of the crawling serpent.—Newell Dwight Hillis.
