Glances

Famous quotes containing the word glances:

    There are glances of hatred that stab, and raise no cry of murder.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Woman—for example, look at her case! She turns tantalizing inviting glances on you. You seize her. No sooner does she feel herself in your grasp than she closes her eyes. It is a sign of her mission, the sign by which she says to man: “Blind yourself, for I am blind.”
    Luigi Pirandello (1867–1936)

    It is the business of the critic, as of the portrait painter, to synthesize a million glances at his subject that will tell the onlooker at one glance the truth about him, as ultimate as he can get it.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
