Famous quotes containing the words typical and/or features:

—Franklin Coen. Joseph Newman. The Monitor (Douglas Spencer)
“The features of our face are hardly more than gestures which force of habit made permanent. Nature, like the destruction of Pompeii, like the metamorphosis of a nymph into a tree, has arrested us in an accustomed movement.”
