The expression of emotions can doubtlessly be modilated voluntarily. But the degree of modulatory control of the emotions evidently cannot go beyond the external manifestations. Given that emotions include many other responses, several of which are internal and invisible to the naked eyes of others, the bulk of the emotional program is still executed, no matter how much willpower we apply to inhibit it. Most important, feelings of emotion, which result from the perception of the concert of emotional changes, still take place even when external emotional expressions are partially inhibited. Emotion and feelings have two faces, in keeping with their very different physiological mechanisms. When you encounter a stoic individual who stiffens his upper lip as tragic news arrives, do not surmise that he is not feeling anguish or fear. An old Portuguese adage captures this wisdom: “He who sees a face never gets to see the heart” ~ Page 133
