Lying Eyes
You can lie with your mouth and body, but your eyes will always tell the truth." --- Luna loves her Finn *Heart*  midnight_moon





I have to be honest. The only thing that came to mind when I read this quote was the Eagles song





Lying Eyes


You can't hide your lying eyes


and your smile is a thin disguise


I thought by now you'd realize


you can't hide those lying eye.





In a word Bull***t. The only reason the person in the song can't hide lying eyes is because she feels guilty. If the eyes are the windows of the soul, then guilt is the crack.





Think about it. Most people would and probably have lied for what they felt were good reasons. If their case is good, if the cause is just, if the good or the benefit out ways the risk most people I find will lie without difficulty.


And because they feel justified, the body believes the lie as truth so no "lying eyes". Politicians anyone? Lawyers, sales etc. You get the picture.





This quote is one of those that sounds like it should be true but in real life....
