Eye Quotes

“The story of life is quicker than the wink of an eye, the story of love is hello and goodbye...until we meet again”
― Jimi Hendrix

“REMEMBER YOUR GREATNESS

Before you were born,
And were still too tiny for
The human eye to see,
You won the race for life
From among 250 million competitors.
And yet,
How fast you have forgotten
Your strength,
When your very existence
Is proof of your greatness.
You were born a winner,
A warrior,
One who defied the odds
By surviving the most gruesome
Battle of them all.
And now that you are a giant,
Why do you even doubt victory
Against smaller numbers,
And wider margins?
The only walls that exist,
Are those you have placed in your mind.
And whatever obstacles you conceive,
Exist only because you have forgotten
What you have already
Achieved.

The mind, the Music breathing from her face,
The heart whose softness harmonised the whole —
And, oh! that eye was in itself a Soul!”

“In the depth a light will grow,
A silver shine no shadows know,
Like wings unfolding in the sky,
That circle 'round a gleaming eye,
Turning darkness all away,
Even depths will know their day,
For every shadow has its end,
In light!
Life will return again!”
― Robert Fanney

“Having an eye for beauty isn't the same thing as a weakness.”
― Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire

“When the star dies,
Its eye closes; tired of watching,
It flies back to its first bright dream.”
― Dejan Stojanovic, Circling: 1978-1987

“Eyes so young, so full of pain... Two lonely drops of winter rain... And no tear could these eyes sustain... For too much had they seen.”
― Shaun Hick

“In the age of technology there is constant access to vast amounts of information. The basket overflows; people get overwhelmed; the eye of the storm is not so much what goes on in the world, it is the confusion of how to think, feel, digest, and react to what goes on.”
― Criss Jami, Venus in Arms

“One pain is lessened by another’s anguish.... Take thou some new infection to thy eye, And the rank poison of the old will die.”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

“Nothing and no one is perfect. It just takes a good eye to find those hidden imperfections.”
― Daphne Delacroix

“The human eye has to be one of the cruelest tricks nature ever pulled. We can see a tiny, cone-shaped area of light right in front of our faces, restricted to a very narrow band of the electromagnetic spectrum. We can’t see around walls, we can’t see heat or cold, we can’t see electricity or radio signals, we can’t see at a distance. It is a sense so limited that we might as well not have it,yetwe have evolved to depend so heavily on it as a species that all other perception has atrophied. We have wound up with the utterly mad and often fatal delusion that if we can’t see something, it doesn’t exist. Virtually all of civilization’s failures can be traced back to that one ominous sentence:‘I’ll believe it when I see it.’We can’t even convince the public that global warming is dangerous. Why? Because carbon dioxide happens to be invisible.”
― David Wong, This Book Is Full of Spiders

“Looking but not seeing is the hearing but not understanding of the eye.”
― Mokokoma Mokhonoana

“To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I confess, absurd in the highest degree...The difficulty of believing that a perfect and complex eye could be formed by natural selection, though insuperable by our imagination, should not be considered subversive of the theory.”
― Charles Darwin

“Always, the eye sees more than the mind can comprehend, and we go through life self-blinded to much that lies before us. We want a simple world, but we live in a magnificently complex one, and rather than open ourselves to it, we perceive the world through filters that make it less daunting.”
― Dean Koontz, Relentless

“Beauty is in the heart of the beholder.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“I have looked into your eyes with my eyes. I have put my heart near your heart.”
― Pope John XXIII

“She held out her hand, like a man. He hesitated, then took the hand and shook it. It was very warm. You could not help but be aware of the wild passage of blood on the other side of its wall, veins, capillaries, sweat glands, tiny factories in the throes of complicated manufacture. [He] looked at the eyes and, knowing how eyes worked, was astonished, not for the first time, at the infinite complexity of Creation, wondering how this thing, this instrument for seeing, could transmit so clearly its entreaty while at the same time—-Look, I am only an eye—-denying that it was doing anything of the sort.”
― Peter Carey, Oscar and Lucinda

“The glance embroiders in joy, knits in pain, and sews in boredom.
When indifferent, the eye takes stills, when interested, movies.
Laughter is regional: a smile extends over the whole face.”
― Malcolm de Chazal

“Instead, I opened my eyes to find the thing in front of my face, wafting dead horse breath across my chin and up my nose, its mouth like a gaping maw; its eyes, two giant wormholes, twisting and bending with some apparitional substance that could have been space and time if I’d known anything about physics.”
― Shannon Celebi, 1:32 P.M.

“The eye was placed where one ray should fall, that it might testify of that particular ray.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance: An Excerpt from Collected Essays, First Series

“The fact that your eyes met mine, your heart murmured the deepest whispers to my heart and together we helped the world see things in a new light, however brief the moment..that makes it a spark in eternity......”
― Jayita Bhattacharjee

“The eye that has no need to see looks nowhere.

-Swimming at Night”
― John Fuller, The Grey Among the Green

“The cornea has no blood vessels and so it is beyond the reach of the immune system. As a result, the cornea is the only tissue in the body that can be transplanted from one person to another with little risk of rejection.”
― Elaine Marieb & Katja Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology 11th Latest Edition Elaine N. Marieb

“I look at the sun all the time and have no eye issues, other than those associated with aging. I wear glasses for reading at age 54. I would never look at the sun through glasses, binoculars or telescopes though, as that is really dangerous! Anything that causes magnification or increased solar radiation levels (such as reflections) is bad for the eyes.”
― Steven Magee

“The human eye may require glasses for clear vision, but not the mind's eye.”
― Md. Ziaul Haque
