Mirrors, however, tell only a half truth. The face in the looking glass is only half the size of your actual face, merely half of what you in fact present and others see. James Hillman, The soul's code Do I need a mirror to know ho my body is? Its shape, its postures, how it moves and in which directions? Do I need a mirror to know how my soul is? How much good and bad, the emotions, its flaws, its story and its desires? Do I need to mirror in somebody's else soul to see mine?
