Famous quotes containing the words hills and/or eyes:
“I am going to my own hearthstone,
Bosom’d in yon green hills alone—
A secret nook in a pleasant land,”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I am secretly afraid of animals.... I think it is because of the usness in their eyes, with the underlying not-usness which belies it, and is so tragic a reminder of the lost age when we human beings branched off and left them: left them to eternal inarticulateness and slavery. Why? their eyes seem to ask us.”
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
