Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

“The eyes of strangers
Are cold as snowdrops....”

Something it had never seen before:
Brown eyes that loved without a trace of fear,
Beauty so sudden for that time of year.”

“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)
