Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

    “Taking a good mouthful, I felt as though I had taken liquid fire; the tomato was chile colorado, or red pepper, of the purest kind. It nearly killed me, and I saw Gómez’ eyes twinkle for he saw that his share of supper was increased.”
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “When I am on a stage, I am the focus of thousands of eyes and it gives me strength. I feel that something, some energy, is flowing from the audience into me. I actually feel stronger because of these waves. Now when the play’s done, the eyes taken away, I feel just as if a circuit’s been broken. The power is switched off. I feel all gone and empty inside of me—like a balloon that’s been pricked and the air’s let out.”
    —Lynn Fontanne (1887–1983)

    “Mine eyes are full of tears, my heart of grief.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
