Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

“The river, right, tumbled into a cove;
But the map dashed the road along the stream
And we dotted man’s fishiest enthymeme
With jellied feet upon understanding love
Of what eyes see not, that nourishes the will:
We were fishers, weren’t we?”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“And then a tall fat man with stringy hair
And a manner that was innocent of sin,
His galluses greasy, his eyes coldly gray,
Appeared, and with a gravely learned air
Spoke from the deep coherence of hell....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)

“For as the eyes of bats are to the blaze of day, so is the reason in our soul to the things which are by nature most evident of all.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
