Famous quotes containing the words eye and/or crossing:
“Love not me for comely grace,

No, nor for a constant heart!”
—Unknown. Love Not Me for Comely Grace (l. 14)
“Nature is a setting that fits equally well a comic or a mourning piece. In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
