    no art/ To find the mind’s construction in the face” (Shakespeare‚ I.iv.12-13). This quote said by King Duncan in Shakespeare’s Macbeth applies to many characters that one reads about in books‚ views on television‚ and interacts with every day. Appearance can be very deceiving‚ thus making it difficult to tell apart a hero from a villain; one’s thoughts and intentions truly define who they are‚ resulting in one’s failure to see how righteous and devious characters differ.
