A sudden question is put to you, you don't even flinch, in one second you get hold of yourself and know what you must say to conceal the truth, and you speak quite convincingly, and not a wrinkle on your face moves, but - alas - the truth which the question stirs up from the bottom of your soul leaps momentarily into your eyes, and it's all over!

  Eyes Quotes - I watch what I eat every day   “Perception requires imagination because the data people encounter in their lives are never complete and always equivocal. For example, most people consider that the greatest evidence of an event one can obtain is to see it with their own eyes, and in a court of law little is held in more esteem than eyewitness testimony. Yet if you asked to display for a court a video of the same quality as the unprocessed data catptured on the retina of a human eye, the judge might wonder what you were tryig to put over.

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   “Eye contact is way more intimate than words will ever be.” ― Faraaz Kazi   “I 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.” ― Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me   “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...

  Eyes Quotes - The things that were once sweet to me are now bitter   “You shine like the sun and you move like water. Your eyes are the perfect mix of gray and brown, like fog in the woods, and you smell like lilacs in the summer. I think if you laughed, it would sound like music.” ― M. Leighton, For the Love of a Vampire   “I see... the way you're always searching. How much you hate anything fake or phony. How you're older than your years, but still... playful, like a little girl. How you're always looking into people, or wondering what they see when they look back at you. Your eyes. It's all in the eyes.” ― Claudia Gray, A Thousand Pieces of You   “When we take the trouble to look at what is unfolding in front of our eyes, we may recognize instances awakening the wisdom slumbering on the fringes of our inner world.

No. You cannot be happy. Because, you poor darling baby, you believe them.” ― Katherine Dunn, Geek Love   “The Artist always has the masters in his eyes.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson   “Why does he have such an unnerving effect on me? His over-whelming good looks maybe? The way his eyes blaze at me? The way he strokes his index finger against his lower lip? I wish he'd stop doing that.” ― E.L.
