Smiles Are Deceiving Quotes & Sayings

There are lying looks, as well as lying words; dissembling smiles, deceiving signs, and even a lying silence. — Ellin Devis

The smile that illumines the features of beauty,
When kindled by virtue, alluring appears;
But smiles, tho' alluring, no magic can borrow,
To vie with the softness of beauty in tears.
The smiles that are sweetest are often deceiving;
Too often a mask which the cold-hearted wears;
But a tear is the holiest offspring of feeling,
And monarchs are weak before beauty in tears. — Henry George Bohn
