Love is blind. Marriage is an eye-opener. ~ Leonard Ravenhill
Eye Opener quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
We [with David Cunningham] did do Top Of The Pops. It was an eye-opener. I mean, one of the things that was so interesting - I've talked about this a few times recently, and people can't believe it - they used to do this thing called tape switch with the Musicians Union. ~ David Toop
Eye Opener quotes by David Toop
Tonight was definitely an eye opener, but a reminder of how I use to be & why. Self discovery happens at such random times. ~ April Mae Monterrosa
Eye Opener quotes by April Mae Monterrosa
My first hero, as a teenager, was James Connolly. I remember discovering that he was a feminist, and that was an eye-opener, coming from a man of such poverty. ~ Frances O'Grady
Eye Opener quotes by Frances O'Grady
I never intended to be a historian of religion. My aim was to become a professor of English Literature in a university, but I had a series of absolute career disasters and found myself making television programs about the nature of religion and about Christian history and started to discover about other religious traditions, and that was an absolute eye-opener for me. ~ Karen Armstrong
Eye Opener quotes by Karen Armstrong
These guys had names for every conceivable drinking situation. They liked to have a little eye-opener to get themselves going in the morning, a midmorning bracer before attempting anything serious, a few modest cocktails at lunch, followed by the obligatory afternoon pick-me-up, which segued neatly right into happy hour and ended with a little one just to help them sleep. For purely medicinal purposes, of course. ~ G.M. Ford
Eye Opener quotes by G.M. Ford
Old concept: Love is blind. Marriage is an eye opener. New concept: Love is not blind - it simply enables one to see things others fail to see. ~ Johann Sebastian Bach
Eye Opener quotes by Johann Sebastian Bach
Eternity shall be at once a great eye-opener and a great mouth-shutter. -Jim Elliot ~ Elisabeth Elliot
Eye Opener quotes by Elisabeth Elliot
This is one of the take-home messages for me: we just walk around with this narrative in America that everybody wants to be rich and famous. That that's why people do what they do. And you know, all through these pages you learn over and over again no, actually not even NFL cheerleaders are doing it for fame and fortune. There's another motivation going on that is so pure and human. That to me was an eye-opener in a really wonderful way. ~ Jeanne Marie Laskas
Eye Opener quotes by Jeanne Marie Laskas
For me, Glasgow is all about the people and the spirit of the place. You have enough Gregg's bakers, though, I'll say that. The opening of the 1977 'Star Wars' movie was possibly the only time I've seen a longer queue round the block than in Glasgow for sausage rolls. That was quite an eye-opener. ~ Darren Boyd
Eye Opener quotes by Darren Boyd
It's plain to see for those who will to see from within and how common and strange things really seem to be when you start to change your planes of perception.As change in the mind persist, so shall change in thoughts, words, and deeds assist. ~ Jose R. Coronado
Eye Opener quotes by Jose R. Coronado
A bemused smile crossed Cassandra's face as she saw Tom Severin kneeling on the floor with his thighs spread for balance, a steel pipe cutter in one hand. In contrast to his earlier polished elegance, he was in shirtsleeves with the cuffs rolled up over his forearms and the collar unfastened. A well-formed man, wide-shouldered and long in the bone. He was steaming in the residual heat from the range, the cropped hair at the back of his neck damp with sweat, the fine linen of his shirt clinging to a hard-muscled back.
Well. This was an eye-opener, in more ways than one. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Eye Opener quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Beware the faces that bare the most smiles.
For they are the ones who hide the most sadness - . ~ A.R. Von
Eye Opener quotes by A.R. Von
When a blind man says, 'God is good,' this should be an eye-opener to those who can see. ~ Anthony Liccione
Eye Opener quotes by Anthony Liccione
But I knew that what had happened was an eye-opener not only to the United States but also to Pakistan, who realized that after what has happened on the 11th of September, it was simply impossible to continue to play those games in Afghanistan. ~ Lakhdar Brahimi
Eye Opener quotes by Lakhdar Brahimi
What did I tell you, Mr. Pippin?' said Sam, sheathing his sword. 'Wolves won't get him. That was an eye-opener, and no mistake! Nearly singed the hair off my head! ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
Eye Opener quotes by J.R.R. Tolkien
When I run across something that feels like a real eye-opener, it's gonna have an influence on me forever. ~ J. Robbins
Eye Opener quotes by J. Robbins
Make sure it is God's trumpet you are blowing-
if it is only yours it won't wake the dead,
it will simply disturb the neighbours. ~ W. Ian Thomas
Eye Opener quotes by W. Ian Thomas
So he's right?" Sophia said.

"From what I've read, yes. That was known back when you were...Never mind...Just...Technically he is right. Over."

"Ick," Sophia said. "I just...Maybe calling you wasn't the best choice, Da. Over."

"I'm glad you did. We never get to talk. But, I've got to get this straight. This Walker guy thinks she got pregnant from involuntary emissions on the damp bottom of a lifeboat? Over."

"Yes," Sophia said. "She's...virgo intacta. And they're both...Like Olga said, only virgins could be that incoherent about it. Over."

"You're not particularly incoherent about it, over."

"You've been talking to us about it since we were kids in one way or another," Sophia said. "And let's just say this cruise has been a real eye-opener."

"I'd say sorry but I didn't start the Plague. Okay, Walker. What's his medical background, over?"

"I'm not sure," Sophia said. "He said he took a course once that included advanced midwifery. I'm not even sure what that means except it has to do with delivering babies."

"God knows we're going to need it. Okay, I'm going to get the CDC to call you and see if they can confirm what you've said. I'm also going to pass this around in the official news bulletin. Over."

"Uh, isn't this a little private, Da?" Sophia asked.

"Well, it's that or every little old lady on the Boadicea will be beating him with their canes. Squadron, ~ John Ringo
Eye Opener quotes by John Ringo
Covering the civil-rights movement was a mind- and eye-opener for me. Houston was a segregated society, as was Texas as a whole - some of it by law, a lot of it by fear and tradition. But there was no violence where I lived, and if there was hate, it was either concealed from me or I just didn't recognize it. ~ Dan Rather
Eye Opener quotes by Dan Rather
I think the best thing about my short-lived political career was that I saw the interiors of Bihar and UP. That is the real India, and, being an Indian, it was really sad to see our own people living in such dismal conditions. It was a real eye-opener. ~ Sanjay Dutt
Eye Opener quotes by Sanjay Dutt
Georgia Dome was a pretty big eye opener that I had something kind of going in the right direction. It seemed like a movement, and I was greatly appreciative for the chants and the signs. ~ Bill Goldberg
Eye Opener quotes by Bill Goldberg
Dogs are a really amazing eye opener for us humans because their lives are compressed into such a short period, so we can see them go from puppyhood to adolescence to strong adulthood and then into their sunset years in 10 to 12 years. It really drives home the point of how finite all our lives are. ~ John Grogan
Eye Opener quotes by John Grogan
I'm satisfied in a way because this is an eye opener for me, ... I didn't have the success I've always been able to have. I learned a lot. ~ Michael Phelps
Eye Opener quotes by Michael Phelps
Love is blind, but marriage is a real eye-opener. ~ Paula Deen
Eye Opener quotes by Paula Deen
Going home and just seeing what a mess youth baseball was was an eye-opener. I just want to make it a better game. ~ Roy Halladay
Eye Opener quotes by Roy Halladay
My new private flying job was a real eye opener. ~ K.C. Barnard
Eye Opener quotes by K.C. Barnard
I've been vegan since I got out of the hospital ... It's another eye opener. It changed my life in a number of ways. ~ Travis Barker
Eye Opener quotes by Travis Barker
We were in the middle of a sandbar in the middle of the ocean with no one around, and still someone was following me from New York, and was hiding in some bushes like a mile away with a long lens, so he still got pictures. It was really an eye opener to how you really have to be careful about being followed everywhere. I was trying to go to the most remote place in the world, I was out on a sandbar in the middle of the ocean, and they still found me. It was definitely a very new experience. ~ Ronda Rousey
Eye Opener quotes by Ronda Rousey
It was an eye-opener to Charlotte that she could love somebody in this mad way with a wild sweet tenerness that made everything he touched precious to her. ~ D.E. Stevenson
Eye Opener quotes by D.E. Stevenson
If you service low-impact activities, therefore, you're taking away time you could be spending on higher-impact activities. It's a zero-sum game. ~ Cal Newport
Eye Opener quotes by Cal Newport
His eyes were exactly the color of that gleaming golden-brown moss you see on stones under the clear water of running brooks. ~ Eleanor Cameron
Eye Opener quotes by Eleanor Cameron
It was August 5th in 1971. The vortex of summer. Joshua looked unwaveringly at Meredith Hurley. She looked back with kindness, and smiled softly as she looked back, feeling a connection that was invisible to the naked eye, yet magnetic and manifested in both of their hearts. ~ Keira D. Skye
Eye Opener quotes by Keira D. Skye
Drama is the most difficult of all arts. In it two things are to be satisfied - first, the ears, and second, the eyes. To paint a scene, if one thing be painted, it is easy enough; but to paint different things and yet to keep up the central interest is very difficult. Another difficult thing is stage - management, that is, combining different things in such a manner as to keep the central interest intact. ~ Swami Vivekananda
Eye Opener quotes by Swami Vivekananda
I can tell by your eye shadow, you're from Brooklyn, right? ... Me too. My mother has plastic covers on all the furniture. Even the poodle. Looked like a barking hassock walking down the street. ~ Elayne Boosler
Eye Opener quotes by Elayne Boosler
When Nature her great masterpiece designed,And framed her last, best work, the human mind,Her eye intent on all the wondrous plan,She formed of various stuff the various Man. ~ Robert Burns
Eye Opener quotes by Robert Burns
Zelda was winter's best dame: pale and dark with a shimmer of Christmas in her eye, a flash of New Year's in her laugh. ~ Catherynne M Valente
Eye Opener quotes by Catherynne M Valente
Her eyes are homes of silent prayers. ~ Alfred Lord Tennyson
Eye Opener quotes by Alfred Lord Tennyson
He never even talked of love; but there are modes of making it more eloquent than language, and which convey it subtilely and irresistibly to the heart. The beam of the eye, the tone of voice, the thousand tendernesses which emanate from every word and look and action - these form the true eloquence of love, and can always be felt and understood, but never described. ~ Washington Irving
Eye Opener quotes by Washington Irving
My years with failing vision have prompted me to learn about the nature of the eye and the incredible gift of sight, which I had always taken for granted until it began to slip away. ~ Henry Grunwald
Eye Opener quotes by Henry Grunwald
He leaned back a little, not taking his arm from around me, but looking into my eyes.
You're changing, Zoey. And I'm not sure what you're changing into. ~ P.C. Cast
Eye Opener quotes by P.C. Cast
You said you wanted Superman. And when Superman comes along, you give him the stink eye."
"I did not."
"Yes you did," Steve said. "If looks could kill, poor Superman would be a goner. ~ Ute Carbone
Eye Opener quotes by Ute Carbone
It is essential that the painter should develop not only his eyes, but also his soul, so that it too may be capable of weighing colors in balance ... ~ Wassily Kandinsky
Eye Opener quotes by Wassily Kandinsky
To see things for what they are is to see with the eyes of the vastness itself. ~ Suzanne Segal
Eye Opener quotes by Suzanne Segal
Eighty years old! No eyes left, no ears, no teeth, no legs, no wind! And when all is said and done, how astonishingly well one does without them. ~ Paul Claudel
Eye Opener quotes by Paul Claudel
You have to be able to connect to the world of archetypes. That is not so easy, and most people in the West have no clue, that that is necessary, because they have no clue of what that means. They see the image, they see Buddha here, but they don't see what the image represents. Its one thing to see with this physical eyes, it's another thing to see with this spiritual eye. ~ Robert Svoboda
Eye Opener quotes by Robert Svoboda
She wished she had cancer instead. She'd trade Alzheimer's for cancer in a heartbeat. She felt ashamed for wishing this, and it was certainly a pointless bargaining, but she permitted herself the fantasy anyway. With cancer, she'd have something to fight. There was surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. There was the chance that she could win. Her family and the community at Harvard would rally behind her battle and consider it noble. And even if it defeated her in the end, she'd be able to look them knowingly in the eye and say good-bye before she left. ~ Lisa Genova
Eye Opener quotes by Lisa Genova
You cannot shy away from yourself. Look the world in the eye, and it can do nothing to hurt you. ~ Claire Legrand
Eye Opener quotes by Claire Legrand
Time passes, and as the hot midday sun and cool mountain nights alternately bake and freeze the blackened landscape of Vesuvius, something remarkable happens.
Gradually, the streams of cold lava are colonized by a lichen, stereocaulon vesuvianim. This lichen is so tiny that it is almost invisible to the naked eye, but as it grows, it turns the lava from black to silvery gray. Where the lichen has gone, other plants can follow- first mugwort, valerian, and Mediterranean scrub, but later ilex and birch trees, along with dozens of species of apricot.
Meanwhile, the clinkers and ash that covered the landscape like so much grubby gray snow are slowly, inexorably, working their way into the fields and the vineyards, crumbling as they do so, adding their richness to the thick black soil, and an incomparable flavor to tomatoes, zucchini, eggplants, fruit and all the other produce which grows there. ~ Anthony Capella
Eye Opener quotes by Anthony Capella
An eye-jangling assortment of spurious clan tartans, adorning every conceivable object made of fabric, from caps, neckties, and serviettes down to a particularly horrid yellow "Buchanan" sett used to make men's nylon Y-front underpants. ~ Diana Gabaldon
Eye Opener quotes by Diana Gabaldon
Elizabeth is smart, ruthless, and emotionally damaged ... [i]f Elizabeth's brain was a person, it would have scars, tattoos, and be missing one eye. ~ Max Barry
Eye Opener quotes by Max Barry
Dreaming was easier than screaming, and screaming was easier than worrying, and worrying was easier than crying, which was what she knew she would be reduced to if she didn't keep a hard eye on herself. ~ Kevin Brockmeier
Eye Opener quotes by Kevin Brockmeier
Often on a journey of spiritual transformation, that is ultimately what heals the pain: the veil is removed from in front of our own eyes and we see where we had been thinking thoughts that would inevitably lead to pain. Until we change those thoughts, the pain will remain. ~ Marianne Williamson
Eye Opener quotes by Marianne Williamson
I think He made one law of that kind in order that there might be obedience. In all these other matters what you call obeying Him is but doing what seems good in your own eyes also. Is love content with that? ~ C.S. Lewis
Eye Opener quotes by C.S. Lewis
Apocalypse is the eye of a needle, through which we pass into a different world. ~ George Zebrowski
Eye Opener quotes by George Zebrowski
Now they are empty, Ramon replied with a shrug of broad, muscled shoulders on his six-foot-three-inch frame ... For the first time, a glint of humor touched Ramon Galverra's finely sculpted mouth and arrogant dark eyes. ~ Judith McNaught
Eye Opener quotes by Judith McNaught
If you're writing a song, you have to write something that can be understood serially. When you're reading a poem that's written for the page, your eye can skip up and down. You can see the thing whole. But you're not going to see the thing whole in the song. You're going to hear it in series, and you can't skip back. ~ James Fenton
Eye Opener quotes by James Fenton
You call me castoff," Mahlia said, "Chinese throwaway, whatever." Amaya was trying to look away, but Mahlia had her pinned, kept her eye to eye. "My old man might have been peacekeeper, but my mom was pure Drowned Cities. You want to war like that, I'm all in." Mahlia lifted the scarred stump of her right hand, shoved it up in Amaya's face. "Maybe I cut you the way the Army of God cut me. See how you do with just a lucky left. How'd you like that? ~ Paolo Bacigalupi
Eye Opener quotes by Paolo Bacigalupi
How to avoid eye contact? Smile & the whole world smiles, with you! ~ Petra Hermans
Eye Opener quotes by Petra Hermans
And so it easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a teenager to enter the kingdom of heaven listening to the Dave Matthews Band. ~ Douglas Wilson
Eye Opener quotes by Douglas Wilson
The heron must be used to people, and yet it never lets you get too close. Draw parallel to it with the width of one of the marsh's holding ponds between you, and it will duck its head, eyeing you with suspicion, then fly. I cannot approach the heron, certainly could never touch it; I can only look for it, entranced.
This is how I understand the divine, and why I continue to seek it in the resolutely non-human world, with which we nonetheless recognize a numinous kinship. Sometimes, it will turn and lock eyes with you, lifting you out of yourself, changing everything. Other times, it will give you the side-eye and swoop away, leaving you longing for retreating beauty. You might not see it every single time you go looking, or where you expect to find it. No matter how common the experience, every time you stumble across mystery, or independent wild being, it is a surprise and a miracle. And every day, you can look." - Sara Amis, "A Daily Heron ~ John Halstead
Eye Opener quotes by John Halstead
Mark, believer, how sure and unchanging must be our acceptance, since it is in him! Take care that you never doubt your acceptance in Jesus. You cannot be accepted without Christ; but, when you have received his merit, you cannot be unaccepted. Notwithstanding all your doubts, and fears, and sins, Jehovah's gracious eye never looks upon you in anger; though he sees sin in you, in yourself, yet when he looks at you through Christ, he sees no sin. You are always accepted in Christ, are always blessed and dear to the Father's heart. Therefore lift up a song, and as you see the smoking incense of the merit of the Saviour coming up, this evening, before the sapphire throne, let the incense of your praise go up also. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Eye Opener quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
We will remain lost, wandering souls until we can look each other in the eye and smile ~ Marty Rubin
Eye Opener quotes by Marty Rubin
There's never a perfect bipartisan bill in the eyes of a partisan. ~ William J. Clinton
Eye Opener quotes by William J. Clinton
Many lyricists rhyme as they pronounce, and their pronunciation is simply horrible. They can make "home" rhyme with "alone," and "saw" with "more," and go right off and look their innocent children in the eye without a touch of shame. ~ P.G. Wodehouse
Eye Opener quotes by P.G. Wodehouse
Through the clouds of smoke I seemed to see all old Asia before me, and the adventures of past years behind me. A carnival of old camp-scenes danced before my mind's eye, expiring like shooting-stars in the night - merry songs which came to an end among other mountains and the dying sound of strings and flutes. And I was surprised that I had not had enough of these things and that I was not tired of the light of camp-fires. ~ Sven Hedin
Eye Opener quotes by Sven Hedin
I desire a violent, domineering, fearless, and ferocious upcoming generation. It must be able to bear pain. It must show no signs whatsoever of weakness or tenderness. The free and magnificent predator must once again glint from their eyes. ~ Adolf Hitler
Eye Opener quotes by Adolf Hitler
Emmett Till and I were about the same age. A week after he was murdered ... I stood on a corner with a gang of boys, looking at pictures of him in the black newspapers and magazines. In one, he was laughing and happy. In the other, his head was swollen and bashed in, his eyes bulging out of their sockets, and his mouth twisted and broken ... I couldn't get Emmett Till out of my mind, until one evening I thought of a way to get back at white people for his death. ~ Muhammad Ali
Eye Opener quotes by Muhammad Ali
What is it with these people? They are more obsessed with me finding a girlfriend than I am.
"He's concentrating on his studies," says Mum proudly.
"Ah," says Mr Coles. "I should've done that, but at his age I was out on the town, living it up. Best days of my life, they were."
"Oh yes, mine too," says Mum with a weird twinkle in her eye.
I wonder how easy it is to kill two people with a screwdriver and a bag of half-frozen peas. ~ J.A. Buckle
Eye Opener quotes by J.A. Buckle
Just try it once - a tree, or at least a considerable section of sky, is to be seen anywhere. It does not even have to be blue sky; in some way or another the light of the sun always makes itself felt. Accustom yourself every morning to look for a moment at the sky and suddenly you will be aware of the air around you, the scent of morning freshness that is bestowed on you between sleep and labor. You will find every day that the gable of every house has its own particular look, its own special lighting. Pay it some heed if you will have for the rest of the day a remnant of satisfaction and a touch of coexistence with nature. Gradually and without effort the eye trains itself to transmit many small delights, to contemplate nature and the city streets, to appreciate the inexhaustible fun of daily life. From there on to the fully trained artistic eye is the smaller half of the journey; the principal thing is the beginning, the opening of the eyes. ~ Hermann Hesse
Eye Opener quotes by Hermann Hesse
The matrix of the heart, lift down the eye
That shrines the quiet lake and swells a tower…
The commodious, tall decorum of that sky
Unseals her earth, and lifts love in its shower. ~ Hart Crane
Eye Opener quotes by Hart Crane
The wheel ... is an extension of the foot.
The book ... is an extension of the eye ...
Clothing, an extension of the skin ...
Electric circuitry, an extension of the central nervous system. ~ Marshall McLuhan
Eye Opener quotes by Marshall McLuhan
I dream that someday the step between my mind and my finger will no longer be needed. And that simply by blinking my eyes, I shall make pictures. Then, I think, I shall really have become a photographer. ~ Alfred Eisenstaedt
Eye Opener quotes by Alfred Eisenstaedt
Everyone is aware of the fact that visual and auditive perspective are identical; the only difference being that they are created and perceived by two physically different organs, the eye and the ear. How often the playing of a great master makes us think of a picture with a deep background and varying planes; the figures in the foreground almost leap out of the frame whereas in the background the mountains and clouds are lost in a blue haze. ~ Heinrich Neuhaus
Eye Opener quotes by Heinrich Neuhaus
She had curled up with those books on more than one occasion, and yes, she had dreamt of a handsome, red-haired man of action, but it hadn't been Dead-Eye Dan, drat it all. She'd dreamt of Daniel Barrett, the man who worked her father's cattle, who trained the finest mules in the county, and whose sky-blue eyes could melt her heart with a single glance. Daniel Barrett had stolen her heart before she'd ever even heard of Dead-Eye Dan. I ~ Karen Witemeyer
Eye Opener quotes by Karen Witemeyer
Have an appreciating eye to enjoy the beauty of sky. ~ Debasish Mridha
Eye Opener quotes by Debasish Mridha
Among the several kinds of beauty, the eye takes most delight in colors. ~ Joseph Addison
Eye Opener quotes by Joseph Addison
Sometimes I see things, I think. Out of the corner of my eye, taunting me, and then it's gone. And dreams. Such horrible dreams. What if something terrible happened to me? What if I am damaged?"
The rain is a cool kiss on my sleeve as I link my arm with hers. "We're all damaged somehow. ~ Libba Bray
Eye Opener quotes by Libba Bray
I read that Monica Seles got stabbed. And although I have nothing against Monica Seles, I'm glad somebody in sports got stabbed. I like the idea of it; it's good entertainment. If we're lucky, it'll spread through sports. And show business, too! Wouldn't you like to see a guy jump up on stage and stab some famous singer? Especially a real shitty pop singer? Maybe they'll even start stabbing comedians. Fuck it, I'm ready! I never perform without my can of mace. I have a switchblade knife, too. I'll cut your eye out and go right on telling jokes. ~ George Carlin
Eye Opener quotes by George Carlin
Here's to love at first sight, and here's to getting over it the moment you blink. ~ Ahmed Mostafa
Eye Opener quotes by Ahmed Mostafa
