Familiar

Famous quotes containing the word familiar:

    Yes, it is the hour at which, long ago, I felt happy. What always awaited me then was a light and dreamless sleep. But something had changed because, with the wait for tomorrow, it is my cell that I have found. As if the familiar paths traced in the summer skies could lead to prisons as well as innocent slumbers.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    Nature is a temple where living pillars
    Sometimes emit confused words;
    Man passes through forests of symbols
    Which observe him with familiar looks.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    I heard the bells, on Christmas Day,
    Their old, familiar carols play,
    And wild and sweet
    The words repeat
    Of peace on earth, good will to men.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
