This quote is by Shakespeare, from Hamlet.
Hamlet is upset at Ophelia and in that particular scene, known as the Nunnery Scene, (immediately after "to be or not to be"). She asks him if Beauty has more power than Honesty, and Hamlet tells her that such is the case indeed, because beauty has a power that transforms honesty, to be somewhat demagogical, changing truth to appeal to beauty. He tells her he loves her, she says he made her believe so, and he replies that she shouldn't have, because he didn't. Lie comes lie goes he tells her to become a nun, now it's a bit of blablabla about something not so related, and then he goes:
I have heard of your paintings too, well enough; God
has given you one face, and you make yourselves
another: you jig, you amble, and you lisp, and
nick-name God's creatures, and make your wantonness
your ignorance. Go to, I'll no more on't; it hath
made me mad. I say, we will have no more marriages:
those that are married already, all but one, shall
live; the rest shall keep as they are. To a
nunnery, go.
When you take it out of context "you" seem to refer to anybody or everybody. But it actually means "you women". He is talking, I think, about women being hypocritical and fake, with changing faces (or faces altered by makeup, or "paintings") and hidden intentions.
Not that I agree, but I think that the quote, in context, means that.
Out of context it could be pointing to people not being truthful and honest to themselves. A Goethe's quote comes to mind: If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise.
'Honesty' means chastity - a plain girl has more chance of being chaste, than a pretty one. Therefore, if you put make-up on and flirt around (jig, amble, lisp), it may be construed as wantonness. You are on the 'pull'.

Why is a slap to one's face considered insulting more so than a slap to any other part of the body?
i think its because you had enough nerve to slap them or because in the movie its usually what the good guy does to the enemy meaning that they must have meant so little to you either at the time or always!! It's sort of like one dog staring down another before the big fight. Slapping a person in the face is the signal to blast off! If you remember the French, they would slap another peer with a glove which meant it was dueling time.
How do you get over the guilt of something awful you did?
There is no cure to regret. The only way to get over it is to firmly place the regrettable event in your mind so that when you find yourself in a simialr situation that you act in a manner that you will not regret. When you realize that you have learned from your mistakes and matured enough to be strong and honest and fair on the midst of difficult situations. No one knows how they will react in a given situation until they are right there face to face with a potential dilema of conscience. The safest action is the one you would do if your grandmother were there watching you. WCF We learn from our failures not our successes.

How does being fashionable make someone confident?
It can depend on the person, but I think for the most part it just makes you feel secure about the way you look, put yourself together, and present yourself. If you're fashionable, it is assumed that you know how to make yourself look good, meaning not only the clothes you wear look great together and have an artistic feel, but they complement and enhance your body, good features, and your personality. It's another way of expressing yourself and showing a collected face to the world.
