Shakespeare said,"There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face".
I feel that in a way he is right as well as he is not.It is generally believed that one cannot geuss or make out a person's character or rather nature just by his facial expression.But my opinion is something different.I have noticed a number of times my guesses in this case have been right.I try to concentrate in the person's eyes and I think that eyes generally do not lie.Well, Shakira says,"hips don't lie" too!!
Facial expressions are important for everyone to convey thoughts without speaking a word and remaining silent.Lips can only give words but it is surely our eyes that speak.For example, the poeple who are dumb and deaf use their facial expressions,apart from body gestures,to convey their messege and converse with each other.If you have ever watched a mime show,you would have surely recognised that even if you are not experienced in making out thoughts and feelings from from different facial expressions,you would be able to understand what the actor is trying to convey to you.Even the film actor and actresses excel in making us understand what he or she wants to say.
Again,it is sometimes impossible to interpret expressions or recognise pseudo expressions.For example, everyone must have heard how Rajiv Gandhi was murdered.Nobody could understand from the countenance of the girl who carried the human bomb(in bengali 'manob boma') that she was going to take such a terrible step.
So never be swaywd away by false expressions which mask an evil thought but do try to understand the soft corners and pains which are hidden under a fake smile.
There is no need of any special power to interpret expressions but we just need to be conscious and aware.What's your opinion for all these?

Great thoughts!
I guess you are right. If people do not try to hide their emotions and their feelings are expressed fully just through their facial expressions, we can judge their character by keeping our eyes open. But, if they know something like 'Occlumency', one is only reminded of Shakespeare's words again and again.
Good post!
