Quotes About Eyes

strong, stirring instant as with fascinated eyes I watched
~ Zane Grey
She's got those big black eyes with plenty shiny white in them that makes them shine like brand new money and she knows what God gave women eyelashes for, too.

It's not ham at all, but it's been around ham and got the flavor.

Tenía, bajo el cabello muy oscuro, un rostro de suprema blancura, de ese blanco mate y raso que es patrimonio exclusivo de los cutis muy finos. Ojos azules, largos, perdiéndose hacia las sienes en el cerco de sus negras pestañas. Acaso un poco separados, lo que da, bajo una frente tersa, aire de mucha nobleza o de gran terquedad. Pero sus ojos, así, llenaban aquel semblante en flor con la luz de su belleza.
~ Horacio Quiroga
Yo tengo alguna idea, como todo hombre, de lo que son dos ojos que nos aman cuando uno se va acercando despacio a ellos. Pero la luz de aquellos ojos, la felicidad en que se iban anegando mientras me acercaba, el mareado relampagueo de dicha –hasta el estrabismo–cuando me incliné sobre ellos, jamás en un amor normal a treinta y siete grados los volveré a hallar.

She just played with it slowly, and then pointed a pair of grey eyes at me. I say a pair. I mean her pair. She didn't get a pair of someone else's out from a drawer and point them at me. She pointed her own pair of huge, pale, grey, pale, huge eyes at me. The sort of eyes that can make a grown man talk gibberish to himself. Get a grip, for Christ's sake.

Your little sister Has tossed her Untied hair forward Like a living veil, Like a fragrant hedge, And peers, with such eyes! Through a fragrant veil, Through a dark hedge ... How sweet it is to only Think of such little things. Fruits have ripened On all the longing branches In your nightly garden, Chinese lanterns like red fruits Sway and illuminate The longing branches Rustled by the night wind In your little garden ... How sweet it is to only Think of such little things.

So las ich falsch in deinem Aug, dem tiefen? Kein heimlich Sehnen sah ich heiß dort funkeln? Es birgt zu deiner Seele keine Pforte Dein feuchter Blick? Die Wünsche, die dort schliefen, Wie stille Rosen in der Flut, der dunkeln, Sind, wie dein Plaudern: seellos... Worte, Worte?
~ Hugo von Hofmannsthal
The fourth elf was younger than the others. This showed in the perfection of her skin, the agility and speed of her movements, and in the brightness of her dress.

There was fire in her dark eyes which added to her overpowering beauty.

Whatever it was in his eyes she had seen, it made her take him home with her. I shouldn't be doing this, she told herself as she spooned her fleech-mush into a bowl and reconstituted it with water in the dispenser.
