“Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who ever looks at it when it has been in the house three days?”
“The mind, conditioned as it is by the past, always seeks to re-create what it knows and is familiar with. Even if it is painful, at least it is familiar. The mind always adheres to the known. The unknown is dangerous because it has no control over it. That's why the mind dislikes and ignores the present moment.”
“Admiration and familiarity are strangers.”
