Quotes About Eyes

A o?i so vse na Julki. In vse klopi zadržujejo dih, da bi bile vse o?i še bolj tesno pri njem. Kakor da bodo iz njih, iz o?i, vsak hip zaplavale otroške dlani kot golobje peruti in privzdignile njeno telo in mu zamanjšale bole?ine.

There were maybe ten people scattered amongst the thirty or so stools, equally spaced apart, no one right next to anyone else, like men's urinals in a public bathroom. They all huddled over their drink, eyes down in protective, don't-converse-with-me mode. A group of bikers on the right played pool on a table with ugly rips in the green fabric.
~ Harlan Coben
Brooke?" It was Win. "I get it," he said. "You're angry." "Man, you're perceptive." "But more than that, you're trying to motivate me," Win said. "There is no need. You know that too." Their eyes met. If someone passed a hand between those eyes, it would probably have been chopped off via laser. Her
~ Harlan Coben
The Asian man slowly kneeled closer to me. I kept my eyes steady on his. Or, at least, I tried to. It wasn't like staring into the eyes of a fellow human being or even an animal.
