"The lover sees in the GLANCE of his beloved the same beauty that in the sunset paints the western skies. It is the same daimon [muse], here lurking under a human eyelid, and there under the closing eyelids of the day . . . What loving astronomer has ever fathomed the ethereal depths of the eye?"
Henry David Thoreau, 1852
