Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

“What is reality?
I am a plaster doll; I pose
with eyes that cut open without landfall or nightfall
upon some shellacked and grinning person,
eyes that open, blue, steel, and close.
Am I approximately an I. Magnin transplant?”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“Downy windows, close,
And golden Phoebus never be beheld
Of eyes again so royal!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Get up and once again politely lying
Invite the ladies toward the mistletoe
With greedy eyes that stare like an old crow.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
