Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes. Genuine ignorance is profitable because it is likely to be accompanied by humility, curiosity, and open mindedness; whereas ability to repeat catch phrases, cant terms, familiar propositions, gives the conceit of learning and coats the mind with varnish waterproof to new ideas (Familiar Quotes)
It is difficult to see a situation for what it is when you are in the midst of it. It is too familiar. Too comfortable (Familiar Quotes)
Nothing is more common than for men to think that because they are familiar with words they understand the ideas they stand for (Familiar Quotes)

A familiar name on its own, however, does not carry its bearer far unless the talent is there, and the will to work (Familiar Quotes)
It is the first changes among familiar things that make such a mystery of time to the young, afterwards we lose the sense of the mysterious (Familiar Quotes)
We are put on this planet only once, and to limit ourselves to the familiar is a crime against our minds (Familiar Quotes)
In a manner familiar to anyone who had ever packed a car for a family trip, genial confusion gave way to impatience, then furious ultimatums, then ill-advised snap decisions (Familiar Quotes)
There is wisdom in turning as often as possible from the familiar to the unfamiliar: it keeps the mind nimble, it kills prejudice, and it fosters humor (Familiar Quotes)
Familiar things happen, and mankind does not bother about them. It requires a very unusual mind to undertake the analysis of the obvious (Familiar Quotes)
We become so used to the familiar that we begin to doubt the unfamiliar, until our eyes are opened and we see (Familiar Quotes)
Husband and wife have so many interests in common that when they have jogged through the ups and downs of life a sufficient time, the leash which at first galled often grows easy and familiar (Familiar Quotes)

The end of childhood is when things cease to astonish us. When the world seems familiar, when one has got used to existence, one has become an adult (Familiar Quotes)
Most people read poetry listening for echoes because the echoes are familiar to them. They wade through it the way a boy wades through water, feeling with his toes for the bottom: The echoes are the bottom (Familiar Quotes)

It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it (Familiar Quotes)
Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar (Familiar Quotes)
Nature is a temple in which living columns sometimes emit confused words. Man approaches it through forests of symbols, which observe him with familiar glances (Familiar Quotes)
Every night I fell asleep to a different Beatles album. So I'm very familiar with the Beatles; Ringo was my favorite Beatle until I grew up and then changed. I made the switch over to George Harrison just in time to regain my cool (Familiar Quotes)
No one, who is familiar with the bustle and activity of an American commercial town, would recognise, in the repose which now reigns in the ancient mart of Rhode Island, a place that, in it's day, has been ranked amongst the most important ports along the whole line of our extended coast (Familiar Quotes)
We read deeply for varied reasons, most of them familiar: that we cannot know enough people profoundly enough; that we need to know ourselves better; that we require knowledge, not just of self and others, but of the way things are (Familiar Quotes)
I would cling to unhappiness because it was a known, familiar state. When I was happier, it was because I knew I was on my way back to misery. I've never been convinced that happiness is the object of the game. I'm wary of happiness (Familiar Quotes)
