“Seek the Lord In the smiles of your friends, In the glow of angry eyes, In the storms of passion. He is everywhere, in everything.”

“But, children, you should never let
Such angry passions rise;
Your little hands were never made
To tear each other's eyes.”

“Oh, storms yes! Everybody, give the Lopen your spheres! I have glowing that needs to be done.”

“Give a smile to everyone you meet (smile with your eyes) — and you’ll smile and receive smiles…”

“Your eyes smile peace.”

“And Ronan was everything that was left: molten eyes and a smile made for war.”

“There was something in her higher than what surrounded her. There was in her the glow of the real diamond among glass imitations. This glow shone out in her exquisite, truly enigmatic eyes. The weary, and at the same time passionate, glance of those eyes, encircled by dark rings, impressed one by its perfect sincerity. Everyone looking into those eyes fancied he knew her wholly, and knowing her, could not but love her.”

“But as he warmed and glowed, in his simple and eloquent language,
Quite forgetful of self, and full of the praise of his rival,
Archly the maiden smiled, and, with eyes over-running with laughter,
Said, in a tremulous voice, "Why don't you speak for yourself, John?"”

“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.”

“He wasn’t a person, he was a lord and a wizard, a strange creature on another plane entirely, as far removed as storms and pestilence.”
