Eyes

I was at my local goodwill this afternoon purchasing a few video games (for a friend of a friend) and a movie (The Maltese Falcon for $3) and the clerk who checked me out said "You have very pretty eyes". This left me flabbergasted for one, I thought "Who is this girl?", and for two "What do I say to her next?". All I could think to say was, "Thanks". It kind of got me thinking about eyes, and what they can represent. I mean aside from the physical beauty you can kind of tell if someone is trustworthy or full of deceit by their eyes. They give you a clue to the inner workings of the person. You can tell if what comes out of their lips matches what is in their hearts. Think about in movies, often times evil characters have red eyes, not because the color itself is evil but it makes you feel like they are not someone you would want to have coffee with. They say that the eyes are the window to the soul, and I am going to concur with that statement. What do you think?
