    Note

    This idiom lives mostly in the negative: people have not seen eye to eye, never completely see eye to eye, or do not often see eye to eye. Kipling's Stalky & Co. (1899) turns it into a rule: no two people in the world see eye to eye. The point in dispute takes on (on railway wages, on the master plan), and a proposal someone accepts takes with.
