The room was quiet, the others flicking glances at me. I ignored them. After years in Sounis's palaces being eyed with disgust by my uncle and my own father and courtier after courtier, I assure you I am unrivaled at pretending not to notice other people's glances.
Megan Whalen Turner

Violins are the lively, forward, importunate wits, that distinguish themselves by the flourishes of imagination, sharpness of repartee, glances of satire, and bear away the upper part in every consort.
Richard Steele

The celebrations Of secret nonmeetings are empty, Unspoken conversations, Unuttered words. Glances that don't intersect Don't know where to come to rest. And only the tears rejoice Because they can flow and flow. Sweetbrier around Moscow, Alas! Somehow it is here ... And all this they will call Love eternal.
Anna Akhmatova
Image
While we may open the books of the past, we may but grant flying glances of the future, through the mist that veils it.

Then I'm going? Kendra asked. The adults in the room exchanged tacit glances before nodding. Then we only have one more problem left to discuss, Seth said. Everyone turned to him. How do I get invited
Brandon Mull

You are solidified silence, awareness. A thousand hours of speech cannot equal one glance: a hundred glances cannot equal a minute of silence
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

What joy when the insouciant armadillo glances at us and doesn't quicken his trotting across the track into the palm brush. What is this joy? That no animal falters, but knows what it must do?
Denise Levertov
Image
So here I sit in the early candle-light of old age-I and my book-casting backward glances over out travel'd road.
Walt Whitman

Edward Snowden

Expressive glances Shall be our lances And pops of Sillery Our light artillery.
Walter Raleigh

If a dog doesn't put you first where are you both? In what relation? A dog needs God. It lives by your glances, your wishes. It even shares your humor. This happens about the fifth year. If it doesn't happen you are only keeping an animal.
Enid Bagnold
Image
Where the wave of moonlight glosses The dim gray sands with light, Far off by furthest Rosses We foot it all the night, Weaving olden dances, Mingling hands and mingling glances Till the moon has taken flight To and fro we leap And chase the frothy bubbles, While the world is full of troubles And is anxious in its sleep. . . .
William Butler Yeats
Image
Redd turned to her assassins. What is it I always say? The Cat, Sacrenoir, and the others bandied uncertain glances about. Don’t be stupid? ventured Alistaire. I should kill you now? offered The Cat. Do I have to murder everyone myself? tried Siren. No, idiots! When in doubt, go for the head. That’s what I always say.
Frank Beddor

The why is plain as way to parish church: He that a fool doth very wisely hit Doth very foolishly, although he smart, Not to seem senseless of the bob if not, The wise man's folly is anatomiz'd Even by the squand'ring glances of the fool.
William Shakespeare
Image
Like a dart the present glances, Silent stands the past sublime.
Friedrich Schiller
Image
Often the soul is ripened into fuller goodness while age has spread an ugly film, so that mere glances can never divine the preciousness of the fruit.
George Eliot
Image
He lived at a little distance from his body, regarding his own acts with doubtful side-glances. He had an odd autobiographical habit which led him to compose in his mind from time to time a short sentence about himself containing a subject in the third person and a verb in the past tense.
