Eyes

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

“Nature herself her shape admires;
The gods are wounded in her sight;
And Love forsakes his heavenly fires
And at her eyes his brand doth light:
Heigh ho, would she were mine!”
—Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

“Much attribute he hath, and much the reason
Why we ascribe it to him; yet all his virtues,
Not virtuously of his own part beheld,
Do in our eyes begin to lose their gloss,
Yea, like fair fruit in an unwholesome dish,
Are like to rot untasted.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Your eyes were frosted starlight,
Your heart fire and snow.
Who was it said, “I love you”?
Alice: Mother, let me go!”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
