Text Quotes
The plain man is familiar with blindness and deafness, and knows from his everyday experience that the look of things is influenced by his senses; but it never occurs to him to regard the whole world as the creation of his senses  (Familiar Quotes) When you direct your first film, you always start by telling stories that you are familiar with  (Familiar Quotes) Isn’t it fascinating how long a few minutes seem when you are completely alone with not a familiar face in sight?  (Familiar Quotes) When you feel a connection, a gut connection, a heart connection, it’s a very special thing. What’s familiar to everyone is watching people falling in love; it doesn’t happen on screen that often. People fall in lust, then they’re suddenly together  (Familiar Quotes) We will have to take risks, to chance failure, to be willing to walk away from the familiar paths that have brought us to this point  (Familiar Quotes) The discoverer and the poet are inventors; and they are so because their mental vision detects the unapparent, unsuspected facts, almost as vividly as ocular vision rests on the apparent and familiar  (Familiar Quotes) To be conservative, then, is to prefer the familiar to the unknown, to prefer the tried to the untried, fact to mystery, the actual to the possible, the limited to the unbounded, the near to the distant, the sufficient to the superabundant, the convenient to the perfect, present laughter to utopian bliss  (Familiar Quotes) We tolerate differences of opinion in people who are familiar to us. But differences of opinion in people we do not know sound like heresy or plots  (Familiar Quotes) Dying was apparently a weaning process; all the attachments to familiar people and objects have to be undone  (Familiar Quotes) I must absorb everything while I’m still singing and step onto the stages of my many homes, and look out at the familiar surroundings, at the people who have come to hear me, to hear music  (Familiar Quotes) One who shows signs of mental aberration is, inevitably, perhaps, but cruelly, shut off from familiar, thoughtless intercourse, partly excommunicated; his isolation is unwittingly proclaimed to him on every countenance by curiosity, indifference, aversion, or pity, and in so far as he is human enough to need free and equal communication and feel the lack of it, he suffers pain and loss of a kind and degree which others can only faintly imagine, and for the most part ignore  (Familiar Quotes) Insight, I believe, refers to the depth of understanding that comes by setting experiences, yours and mine, familiar and exotic, new and old, side by side, learning by letting them speak to one another  (Familiar Quotes) The familiar writer is apt to be his own satirist. Out of his own mouth is he judged  (Familiar Quotes) To know after absence the familiar street and road and village and house is to know again the satisfaction of home  (Familiar Quotes) Every one must understand that, whatever be the evil of slavery, it is not increased by its diffusion. Every one familiar with it knows that it is in proportion to its sparseness that it becomes less objectionable. Wherever there is an immediate connexion between the master and slave, whatever there is of harshness in the system is diminished  (Familiar Quotes) Don’t be so familiar and so much into the details. Keep people dreaming. Close the window, and make them wonder  (Familiar Quotes) When you’re scared, you’re still hanging on to life. When you’re ready to die, you let it go. A sort of emptying out occurs, a giving up on the world that seems oddly familiar even if you’ve never done it before  (Familiar Quotes) I read a lot of scripts and so many are clearly a knockoff of one familiar genre or another  (Familiar Quotes) My parents must have done a great job. Anytime I wanted to pursue something that they weren’t familiar with, that was not part of their lifestyle, they let me go ahead and do it  (Familiar Quotes) All equestrians, if they last long enough, learn that riding in whatever form is a lifelong sport and art, an endeavor that is both familiar and new every time you take the horse out of his stall or pasture  (Familiar Quotes) Most of us lead far more meaningful lives than we know. Often finding meaning is not about doing things differently; it is about seeing familiar things in new ways. When we find new eyes, the unsuspected blessing in work we have done for many years may take us completely by surprise. We can see life in many ways: with the eye, with the mind, with the intuition. But perhaps it is only those who speak the language of meaning, who have remembered how to see with the heart, that life is ever deeply known or served  (Familiar Quotes) Habits of literary composition are perfectly familiar to me. One of the rarest of all the intellectual accomplishments that a man can possess is the grand faculty of arranging his ideas. Immense privilege! I possess it. Do you?  (Familiar Quotes) Today I will go to wait for her again, because I cannot help it, because my whole being seems now to be bound up in the being of one so different from myself and yet so exquisitely familiar that I can scarely understand what has happened  (Familiar Quotes) Erotic acts are instinctive; they fulfill a role in nature. The idea is familiar, but it is one that contains a paradox: there is nothing more natural than sexual desire; there is nothing less natural than the forms in which it is made manifest and satisfied  (Familiar Quotes) The woman was silent, her eyes on the floor. Shimamura had come to a point where he knew he was only parading his masculine shamelessness, and yet it seemed likely enough that the woman was familiar with the failing and need not be shocked by it. He looked at her. Perhaps it was the rich lashes of the downcast eyes that made her face seem warm and sensuous. She shook her head very slightly, and again a faint blush spread over her face  (Familiar Quotes) The place was a familiar as breath but as far from his life now as the moon  (Familiar Quotes) ... for reading, once begun, quickly becomes home and circle and court and family, and indeed, without narrative, I felt exiled from my own country. By the transport of books, that which is most foreign becomes one’s familiar walks and avenues; while that which is most familiar is removed to delightful strangeness; and unmoving, one travels infinite causeways, immobile and thus unfettered  (Familiar Quotes) He will essentially follow the language of the spectacle, for it is the only one he is familiar with  (Familiar Quotes) I was certain t find the familiar sting of salt, but what I needed to know was what kind: kitchen, sweat, tears or the sea  (Familiar Quotes) One day the stars will be as familiar to each man as the landmarks, the curves, and the hills on the road that leads to his door, and one day that will be an airborne life  (Familiar Quotes)
