Excerpt from The Human Face
Fixed habits, and the constant exercise of certain faculties, will, in time, produce fixed or permanent expressions of the face. As to whether the expression 18 good or bad, that will of course depend upon the kind of life one leads, the quality of the habits indulged in, and the normal or abnormal use of the faculties and propensities. The perverted or even excessive use of any of the organs of the brain or body will very soon produce an impure, unhappy, or un healthy looking countenance. People should be very careful not to allow their minds to become too much engrossed upon One subject, whether it be of a moral, intellectual, social or business nature, be cause-such a course will not only narrow their minds and make them one-sided and even prejudiced in their ideas, but leave their faces deficient in expression that is, the countenance will not show that variety of expression and strength of character it would if the mind was more generally exercised.
