Eyes
This past year has been something else... it's opened my eyes to many things and many people. It's had its ups and downs and ins and outs. And I believe we've all been able to take something from that and grow in our own imparticular ways. We've over come obstacles, and set in motion opportunities that can change our own individual lives.
Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war.
The countenance is the portrait of the soul, and the eyes mark its intentions.
Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.
The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all darkness.
The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say, 'O God, forgive me', or 'Help me'.
Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.
I understand that there are thick, dark circles under my eyes. I have grown to appreciate them. I have noticed that my nose grows a little hookier on a near-monthly basis. That's fine. I know there are wrinkles ready to stake their claim as full time residents on my forehead any moment now. My dad has those, too, and I find that endearing.
Love is not a fire to be shut up in a soul. Everything betrays us: voice, silence, eyes; half-covered fires burn all the brighter.
A writer should write with his eyes and a painter paint with his ears.
We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.
Back in England, a girl with thick black hair, dusky skin and big brown eyes will turn heads. It is vice versa in India.
You wind up creating from silence, like painting a picture on a blank canvas that could bring tears to somebody's eyes. As songwriters, our blank canvas is silence. Then we write a song from an idea that can change somebody's life. Songwriting is the closest thing to magic that we could ever experience. That's why I love songwriting.
There are various eyes. Even the Sphinx has eyes: and as a result there are various truths, and as a result there is no truth.
The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions. Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective.
The hardest thing to see is what is in front of your eyes.
Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?
Nature and books belong to the eyes that see them.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
Leaders keep their eyes on the horizon, not just on the bottom line.
