Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

    Cowardice shuts the eyes till the sky is not larger than a calf-skin: shuts the eyes so that we cannot see the horse that is running away with us; worse, shuts the eyes of the mind and chills the heart.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Well, begone, begone, I say,
    Lest that Argus’ eyes perceive you.’
    Oh, unjust Fortunes sway,
    Which can make me thus to leave you,
    And from louts to run away.
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    And then I met a woman—now comes the funny
    part—
    With eyes that petrified my brain, and sunk into my heart.
    Hugh Antoine D’Arcy (1843–1925)
