Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

“A hovering temporizer, that
Canst with thine eyes at once see good and evil,
Inclining to them both.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“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)

“Unfortunately, it is much easier to shut one’s eyes to good than to evil. Pain and sorrow knock at our doors more loudly than pleasure and happiness; and the prints of their heavy footsteps are less easily effaced.”
