Who sees the human face correctly: the photographer, the mirror, or the painter?

Every man's work, whether it be literature, or music or pictures or architecture or anything else, is always a portrait of himself.

It takes a long time for a man to look like his portrait.

A man in a suit looking put together and dapper is very attractive, but I also kind of like the I-just-rolled-out-of-bed, a-little-bit-of-scruff, effortless, not-trying-hard-but-still-sexy guy. If a guy spends more time looking in the mirror than I do, that's problem!

The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face.

The great corrupter of public man is the ego. Looking at the mirror distracts one's attention from the problem.

Manners are like the shadows of virtues, they are the momentary display of those qualities which our fellow creatures love and respect.

It seems to be a law of nature that no man, unless he has some obvious physical deformity, ever is loth to sit for his portrait.

A man has as many social selves as there are individuals who recognize him.

You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.
