Excerpt from Of Making One's Self Beautiful
Everything is wonderful and Opens into the vast: why call the hilman face the greatest wonder Because it is the Spot where that which we call mind comes nearest to the surface of that which we call matter. Language reveals the unseen self Within us thinking, the face reveals the unseen self within us feeling, the one reporting to the ear, the other to the eye. Of all the sounds on earth a word, of all the sights on earth a human face, make us aware there is a world Within the world Therefore are these two things, a word, a face, the two arch-wonders of creation.
