“I view people two ways. They're either eye-for-an-eye people or they are turn-the-cheek people.”

“Most people underestimate eyes. They're infinite. You look someone straight in the eye and your whole soul can be sucked out in a nanosecond. Other people's eyes are limitless and that's what scares me.”

“Between two people, the eyes will always be the first to meet.”

“sudden, spontaneous eye contact is a sign that two people should talk.”

“There are two ways to stay safe, Reen's voice whispered to her. Either be so quiet and harmless that people ignore you, or be so dangerous that they're terrified of you.”

“Most people think, when they're young, that they're going to the top of their chosen world, and that the climb up is only a formality. Without that faith, I suppose, they might never start. Somewhere on the way they lift their eyes to the summit and know they aren't going to reach it; and happiness then is looking down and enjoying the view they've got, not envying the one they haven't.”

“Jason once told me that eye contact is the most intimacy two people can have -- forget sex -- because the optic nerve is technically an extension of the brain, and when two people look into each other's eyes, it's brain-to-brain.”

“Today, in this city
two people will meet and lock eyes;
the curtains are then turbulently thrown open.
[…] Today, in this city
two people will separate their paths;
the curtains are then silently lowered.”

“two people can sleep in the same bed and still be alone when they close their eyes”

“There is nothing more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends.”
