“They say that loving eyes can never see, but that's a fool's axiom. Sometimes, they see too much”
“Sometimes loving eyes don't see what they don't want to see.”
“How can you see something that isn't there?" yawned the Humbug, who wasn't fully awake yet. "Sometimes, it's much simpler than seeing things that are,"he said. "For instance, if something is there, you can only see it with your eyes open, but if it isn't there, you can see it just as well with your eyes closed. That's why imaginary things are often easier to see than real ones.""Then where is Reality?" barked Tock. "Right here,"cried Alec, waving his arms.”
“When you're too close to people, when you spend too much time with them and love them too dearly, sometimes you can't see them”
“You're so calm and quiet, you never say. But there are things inside you. I see them sometimes, hiding in your eyes.”
“Any fool can turn a blind eye but who knows what the ostrich sees in the sand.”
