“Ladies and gentlemen good eveningYou've seen that seeing is believingYour ears and your eyes will be bleedingPlease check to see if you're still breathing”

“The eye--it cannot choose but see;We cannot bid the ear be still;Our bodies feel, where'er they be,Against or with our will.”

“I breathe onto a mirror just to make sure I’m still alive, and to see how good looking my breath is.”

“The Cyclopes growled, "I don't see very well since the last hero poked my eye out, but you're... NO... LADY... CYCLOPES!”

“You must realize that no matter how intently you count your breaths you will still perceive what is in your line of vision, since your eyes are open, and you will hear the normal sounds about you, as your ears are not plugged. And since your brain likewise is not asleep, various thought forms will dart about your mind. Now, they will not hamper or diminish the effectiveness of zazen unless, evaluating them as "good", you cling to them or, deciding they are "bad", you try to check or eliminate them.”

“He smiled the most wicked smile she'd ever seen himi unleash."No. Just keep your eyes open. I want you to see who you're making love to."~Dante”
