Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

“His eyelids droop, his head falls low,
His old eyes cloud with dreams;
The sun upon all things that grow
Falls in sleepy streams.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“The eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 15:3.

“On fields all drenched with blood he made his record in war, abstained from lawless violence when left on the plantation, and received his freedom in peace with moderation. But he holds in this Republic the position of an alien race among a people impatient of a rival. And in the eyes of some it seems that no valor redeems him, no social advancement nor individual development wipes off the ban which clings to him.”
—Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)
