First impressions are often the truest, as we find (not infrequently) to our cost, when we have been wheedled out of them by plausible professions or studied actions. A man's look is the work of years it is stamped on his countenance by the events of his whole life, nay, more, by the hand of nature, and it is not to be got rid of easily. – William HazlittRate it:
A gift, with a kind countenance, is a double present. – Thomas FullerRate it:
There are many kinds of smiles, each having a distinct character. Some announce goodness, and sweetness, others betray sarcasm, bitterness, and pride; some soften the countenance by their languishing tenderness, others brighten by their spiritual vivacity. – Johann Kaspar LavaterRate it:
I have known a vast quantity of nonsense talked about bad men not looking you in the face. Don't trust that conventional idea. Dishonesty will stare honestly out of countenance any day of the week, if there is anything to get got by it. – Charles DickensRate it:
O how wonderful is the human voice! It is indeed the organ of the soul. The intellect of man sits enshrined visibly upon his forehead and in his eye; and the heart of man is written upon his countenance. But the soul reveals itself in the voice only, as God revealed himself to the prophet in the still small voice, and in a voice from the Burning Bush. The soul of man is audible, not visible. A sound alone betrays the flowing of the eternal fountain invisible to man. – LongfellowRate it:
The ridiculous is produced by any defect that is unattended by pain, or fatal consequences; thus, an ugly and deformed countenance does not fail to cause laughter, if it is not occasioned by pain. – AristotleRate it:
As you cannot have a sweet and wholesome abode unless you admit the air and sunshine freely into your rooms, so a strong body and a bright, happy, or serene countenance can only result from the free admittance into the mind of thoughts of joy and goodwill and serenity. – James Allen, "As A Man Thinketh"Rate it:
Assume in adversity a countenance of prosperity, and in prosperity moderate thy temper. – LivyRate it:
It is the nature of ambition to make men liars and cheats, to hide the truth in their breasts, and show, like jugglers, another thing in their mouths, to cut all friendships and enmities to the measure of their own interest, and to make a good countenance without the help of good will. – SallustRate it:
It opens the lungs, washes the countenance, exercises the eyes, and softens down the temper; so cry away. – Charles DickensRate it:
Mighty are the winds of time, which sweep away the despair of a broken heart, which blow back the essence of life, which refresh the soul with yet another sweet countenance. – Dax WardRate it:
One who shows signs of mental aberration is, inevitably, perhaps, but cruelly, shut off from familiar, thoughtless intercourse, partly excommunicated; his isolation is unwittingly proclaimed to him on every countenance by curiosity, indifference, aversion, or pity, and in so far as he is human enough to need free and equal communication and feel the lack of it, he suffers pain and loss of a kind and degree which others can only faintly imagine, and for the most part ignore. – Charles CooleyRate it:
Secret thoughts and open countenance will go safely over the whole world. – Scipione AlbertiRate it:
Self-obsessed being a negative person feels suffocation on not getting appreciation on uploaded countenance on social media literally everyday from the networking people. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
The countenance is the portrait of the soul, and the eyes mark its intentions. – Marcus Tullius CiceroRate it:
The court today holds enforceable these arm-twisted, take-it-or-leave-it contracts — including the provisions requiring employees to litigate wages and hours claims only one-by-one. Federal labor law does not countenance such isolation of employees. – Ruth Bader GinsburgRate it:
The more a person loves to get admired or liked by the people on own looks or countenance, the more he or she is actually a wicked in true sense. – Anuj SomanyRate it:
The two maxims of any great man at court are, always to keep his countenance and never to keep his work. – Jonathan SwiftRate it:
There is no place in American life for discriminatory rhetoric of any kind, at a time when hate crimes are on the rise, when religious believers are murdered in their places of worship, we cannot countenance any speech that dehumanizes persons on the basis of ethnicity, religious belief, economic status or country of origin. – The Archdiocese of ChicagoRate it:
They speak with a tremendous amount of conviction and resolve, and I think that Jeb's style, his personality and personal countenance is more contemplative and analytic. – Timothy HeadRate it:
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. – Psalm 42, Book II, Holy BibleRate it:
