It was as if when I looked into his eyes I was standing alone on the edge of the world...on a windswept ocean beach. There was nothing but the soft roar of the waves.

Anne Rice
It was as if when I looked into his eyes...
It was as if when I looked into his eyes...
It was as if when I looked into his eyes...
It was as if when I looked into his eyes...
About This Quote

"It was as if when I looked into his eyes I was standing alone on the edge of the world...on a windswept ocean beach. There was nothing but the soft roar of the waves.” This quote embodies the feeling you get when you are with someone who makes you feel like everything in the world is OK. The world may be overcast, there may be conflict or suffering, yet when you look into someone's eyes, all is right with the world. The quote is particularly apt for survivors of abuse.

When you are being abused, your sense of safety and control are being taken away from you by some outside force. You have no choice but to sit back and watch helplessly as events unfold. When you find someone who gives you that feeling again, you can be sure that everything will be alright after all.
