Eyes Quotes - Eye contact is way more intimate than words will ever be
“Beautiful
places are not just a joy for the moment, while you’re there. They will become
homes for you, spaces of solace and comfort, where you can close your eyes and
go to. Nothing you experience will ever go away. It belongs to you now. Just
feel. Don’t be afraid to feel.”

Charlotte Eriksson
“Those
who speak of progression but are afraid of change are self-repressed and
therefore unable to reach any further than their eyes can already see.”

Criss Jami, Killosophy

peek up at his features, at the crooked grin i want to savor, at the color in
his eyes i'd use to paint a million pictures.”

“Behind
these eyes
there
is a girl trapped within
her
pain – a girl feeling all the emotions
of
anger and sadness.
She’s
fighting for a way out.” (In her eyes, p. 39)”

Toba Beta, My Ancestor Was an Ancient Astronaut
“I
had a dream about you. It's been a while since I could remember any of my
dreams, and still, this one has left me with such strong impression. Even now,
when I am fully awake, your face flashes before my eyes. It's a face I can
totally relate to, as if it wasn't any more yours than it is mine. Terrifying
thing, you know? I can't say I've felt that sort of intimacy with anyone. For a
moment you knew all my secrets, without me even having to tell them. For a
moment I even knew them myself…
While
I was looking into your eyes, I suddenly started to realize things about myself
that were unspoken for years, like fragments of my inner life that were deeply
repressed. It’s hard to distinguish if they were buried inside because dealing
with them was such a dirty work, or if leaving them unnamed meant that it was
not possible to define them precisely enough, so they would keep their true
meaning. Perhaps, all this life that I've known so far was in fact no more but
a dream about living. The only thing that has kept me in touch with reality was
you…
I
know it comes as a surprise, and you may be wondering why it took me so long to
come clean. You also may be wondering how come you've never noticed before.
I've tricked you on purpose, yes, and you must realize it really has nothing to
do with you. It’s always been me. This is why, seeing you in my dream like
that, came out as a shock. You also must forgive me. You must forgive me
because I know how it looks like, that everything we ever shared was a lie, and
it wasn't…
I am
more of an illusionist that a deceiver, but it all comes from being in fact, a
very private person. Even if it was true that you knew me better than anyone,
I’d never admit it. I’d rather dig my own heart out, with a rotten spoon, than
admitting it. I may let people in my own little world occasionally, but I would
never let them be aware of it. I don’t throw my intimacy in front of others,
especially when I care. The more I care, the less I give away, and this is
something for you to understand, and grant me your forgiveness. I didn't play
my tricks on you in order to deceive you, but rather to save myself, and maybe
even deceive myself as well. I’ve had hidden my feelings for you so deeply that
I've learned to live with them, as if any other casualty. I have done wrong to
myself as much as I did to you, and I don’t know if I can forgive myself. So
now I wonder, could you forgive me without feeling sorry for me? I certainly
don’t deserve your pity. Especially not now that I am awake.”

Aleksandra Ninkovic, Dreaming is for lovers
“We
ought to regard the present state of the universe as the effect of its
antecedent state and as the cause of the state that is to follow. An
intelligence knowing all the forces acting in nature at a given instant, as
well as the momentary positions of all things in the universe, would be able to
comprehend in one single formula the motions of the largest bodies as well as
the lightest atoms in the world, provided that its intellect were sufficiently
powerful to subject all data to analysis; to it nothing would be uncertain, the
future as well as the past would be present to its eyes. The perfection that
the human mind has been able to give to astronomy affords but a feeble outline
of such an intelligence.”

Pierre Simon de Laplace
“His
eyes are peculiar. There is nothing in them, like an eclair without the cream
filling. It's wrong, lack of cream.”
―
Gail Carriger, Blameless
“People
felt themselves watching him even before they knew that there was anything
different about him. His eyes made a person think that he heard things that no
one else had ever heard, that he knew things no one had ever guessed before. He
did not seem quite human.”
