But what is a perfect nose!--We only know that a short snub nose goes with an over-sympathetic nature, not proud enough; while a long nose derives from the center of the upper will, the thoracic ganglion, our great center of curiosity, and benevolent or objective control.

A thick, squat nose is the sensual-sympathetic nose, and the high, arched nose the sensual voluntary nose, having the curve of repudiation, as when we turn up our nose from a bad smell, but also the proud curve of haughtiness and subjective authority.

The nose is one of the greatest indicators of character.

That is to say, it almost inevitably indicates the mode of predominant dynamic consciousness in the individual, the predominant primary center from which he lives .-- When savages rub noses instead of kissing, they are exchanging a more sensitive and a deeper sensual salute than our lip-touch.
The eyes are the third great gateway of the psyche.

Here the soul goes in and out of the body, as a bird flying forth and coming home.
