Summary

This quote suggests that while someone may try to deceive others through lies, their facial expressions and body language can often reveal their true feelings or intentions. No matter how convincingly one may try to mask the truth, the unconscious betrayal in the form of a grimace or a subtle facial expression potentially uncovers their hidden emotions or discomfort. It highlights how nonverbal cues can provide insights that may contradict the spoken words, reminding us of the limitations of solely relying on verbal communication to understand others.

I will love you always. When this red hair is white, I will still love you. When the smooth softness of youth is replaced by the delicate softness of age, I will still want to touch your skin. When your face is full of the lines of every smile you have ever smiled, of every surprise I have seen flash through your eyes, when every tear you have ever cried has left its mark upon your face,I will treasure you all the more, because I was there to see it all. I will share your life with you, Meredith, and I will love you until the last breath leaves your body or mine.
