There is no more lively sensation than that of pain; its impressions are certain and dependable, they never deceive as may those of the pleasure women perpetually feign and almost never experience.
Marquis de Sade
When AI approximates Machine Intelligence, then many online and computer-run RPGs will move towards actual RPG activity. Nonetheless, that will not replace the experience of ‘being there,’ any more than seeing a theatrical motion picture can replace the stage play.

I know when I go to a movie I want to experience something, whether to laugh, to cry, to feel bad.
Ray Liotta

Herb Kelleher
Of two pleasures, if there be one which all or almost all who have experience of both give a decided preference, irrespective of any feeling of moral obligation to prefer it, that is the more desirable pleasure.

Zadie Smith
I had a really great experience so far with film acting. And most experiences from most actors, I’ve heard, are not like this. But I want a career that has many disciplines and many options.
Thomas Horn
Although we have, in theory, abolished human slavery, recognized women’s rights, and stopped child labor, we continue to enslave other species who, if we simply pay attention, show quite clearly that they experience parental love, pain, and the desire for freedom, just as we do.
Ingrid Newkirk
The human voice: It’s the instrument we all play. It’s the most powerful sound in the world, probably. It’s the only one that can start a war or say ‘I love you.’ And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don’t listen to them.
Julian Treasure
I go to the British Comedy Awards and, you know, quite a few people were making jokes at my expense. It just made me feel awful, because I am there with my wife and she has gone out and bought a dress. And it is my big night and I won, and yet the overriding experience was that of nastiness.
Michael McIntyre
Everything we do, every decision we make, is to ensure the best possible Airbnb experience for our community and grow the love.
Joe Gebbia

Dana Bash
Experience is a good teacher.
Gina Haspel
We are different, in essence, from other men. If you want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon.
Emil Zatopek
As women, we may not be a minority, but there is a bond that we all share. It is not a bond of geography. Or religion. Or culture. It is a bond of shared experience – experiences that only women go through and struggles that only women face.
Amal Clooney
After years of touring you experience music festivals that are mostly the same – where you copy and paste the same experience into a muddy field in California or a muddy field in England.
Aaron Dessner
Uber is efficiency with elegance on top. That’s why I buy an iPhone instead of an average cell phone, why I go to a nice restaurant and pay a little bit more. It’s for the experience.
Travis Kalanick
Take control of your consistent emotions and begin to consciously and deliberately reshape your daily experience of life.
Tony Robbins
‘The Daily Show’ was like my family. We had dogs in the office every day, all day. It was just such a warm, beautiful, sweet experience for me. Choosing to leave the show was so hard because I really, really loved everybody there, and I loved what it gave me and the platform it gave me.
Jessica Williams
Practical wisdom is only to be learned in the school of experience. Precepts and instruction are useful so far as they go, but, without the discipline of real life, they remain of the nature of theory only.

Carlo Ancelotti

Ralph Waldo Emerson
That experience with ‘Rent’ went by so fast. I was younger. I didn’t even really know what opening night was.

Idina Menzel
Hands-on experience is the best way to learn about all the interdisciplinary aspects of robotics.
Rodney Brooks

Elie Wiesel

John Keats
Prudence is but experience, which equal time, equally bestows on all men, in those things they equally apply themselves unto.

W. Clement Stone
Playing a bad guy is always a freeing experience, because you don’t have the same envelope of restrictions as you have playing a good guy. Good guys restrain themselves; they kind of have their moral fiber cut out for them in varying degrees.

Guy Laliberte
God has a plan for you – I can promise you that. Your life is sacred. There is and always has been a path for your soul, and if you follow that path, it will lead you to the inner utopia that your soul longs to experience in this lifetime.
Debbie Ford
The experience of ages has shown that a man who works on the land is purer, nobler, higher, and more moral… Agriculture should be at the basis of everything. That’s my idea.

I’ve had a wonderful experience here at Penn State.
Joe Paterno
I know it’s an experience that I need to have if God’s putting me through it.
Lil Wayne
I’m no expert. I have no psychic powers, and I sure don’t possess any secret wisdom. I’m just Janet. I have strengths, weaknesses, fears, happiness, sadness. I experience joy and I experience pain. I’m highly emotional. I’m very vulnerable.
Janet Jackson
Grief starts to become indulgent, and it doesn’t serve anyone, and it’s painful. But if you transform it into remembrance, then you’re magnifying the person you lost and also giving something of that person to other people, so they can experience something of that person.

For me, life is about experience and being a good person.

Jessica Mauboy
To experience sublime natural beauty is to confront the total inadequacy of language to describe what you see. Words cannot convey the scale of a view that is so stunning it is felt.

Helen Keller
My favorite college experience was probably leaving college.
Marshawn Lynch
I haven’t been as wild with my money as somebody like me might have been. I’ve been very safe, very conservative with investments. I don’t blow money. I don’t have a ton of houses. I know things can go away. I’ve already had that experience.
Jim Carrey
Everything has been said before, but since nobody listens we have to keep going back and beginning all over again.
Andre Gide
Memory is not an instrument for exploring the past but its theatre. It is the medium of past experience, as the ground is the medium in which dead cities lie interred.
Walter Benjamin
I like the feeling of making things. It’s very very rewarding. And filmmaking is that type of experience, where you’re forced to collaborate with so many people. You’re involved in the beginning to end, you’re involved with so many elements, and when it’s done, you’re like, ‘I made this movie.’
Chris Evans
Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves – and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.

Thich Nhat Hanh
One of the greatest moments in anybody’s developing experience is when he no longer tries to hide from himself but determines to get acquainted with himself as he really is.
Norman Vincent Peale
It always seems to me so odd that when a man dies, he takes out with him all the knowledge that he has got in his lifetime whilst sowing his wild oats or winning successes. And he leaves his sons or younger brothers to go through all the work of learning it over again from their own experience.
Robert Baden-Powell
But constant experience shows us that every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go.
Montesquieu
One of the things I’m trying to do over and over again in my books is create new mythologies, create new ways to understand the complexity of the world.

Experience is the cane of the blind.
Jacques Roumain
The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.
Sigmund Freud
I love Australia; it was a really, really nice experience for me. It’s such a beautiful place. The people are beautiful – like, really beautiful – and they are beautiful in terms of their personalities. It’s a great place to be. It’s like you are in a little bit of a dream world.
Shawn Mendes
Experience is something you don’t get until just after you need it.

Hunter S. Thompson
It took me years to understand that words are often as important as experience, because words make experience last.
William Morris
‘Fallout 76’ is a very different ‘Fallout’ game. We’re very aware of that. We think a lot of people will like it, because we like it. But a lot of people probably won’t. We need to balance that. This is an idea we have, and there’s a lot of old ‘Fallout’ stuff in it, but it’s a very new experience.
Todd Howard
I grew up with vinyl records and remember the pleasure and the kind of buzz that I got from buying a beautiful vinyl record with the sleeve and the lyrics – all that kind of tactile experience that you could get from an old vinyl record.
Steven Wilson
Our experience is composed rather of illusions lost than of wisdom acquired.

Matthew Perry
I can tell you from experience that God’s help and presence in our lives is vital. He is the Author of all true success and everything that is good-without Him, we can do nothing of true value.
Joyce Meyer

Jose Rizal
Writing, of course, is writing, acting comes from the theater, and cinematography comes from photography. Editing is unique to film. You can see something from different points of view almost simultaneously, and it creates a new experience.
Stanley Kubrick
For people living with HIV, the knowledge that undetectable equals untransmittable is huge news, not only as a means of preventing transmission, but in breaking down the stigma that many people still experience.

Dianne Reeves
Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.
Benjamin Franklin
Maturity and experience are part of my liberation.
Alicia Keys
The stuff I did in ‘Rescue Me’ was great. It gave me the opportunity to play comedy, and Denis Leary was the first one to take a chance with me. And from that experience, we had a comedy pilot that we did that I was going to play the lead in. And then ‘Person of Interest’ came along. They’re all new experiences.
Kevin Chapman
I know that I’m just a spirit. I’m just a soul living a human experience. You come here for a purpose. So, once you acknowledge that and acknowledge that God put you here for a reason, I feel like you gotta fulfill that as much as possible.
NLE Choppa
Most of the images of reality on which we base our actions are really based on vicarious experience.
Albert Bandura
I believe so much in the power of performance I don’t want to convince people. I want them to experience it and come away convinced on their own.

We shall not grow wiser before we learn that much that we have done was very foolish.
Friedrich August von Hayek
I loved the college experience of studying.

You know, young actors say all the time, ‘Should I use my own life experience?’ And my response is, ‘What choice do you have?’
David Mamet
Each goal, each win, going to different buildings, the rivalries, the excitement – it is something. I try to catch myself, you know, in the warm-ups, when you’re on the line and the anthem and you get to some milestones and stuff. It’s such a neat experience.
Jarome Iginla
Let us be about setting high standards for life, love, creativity, and wisdom. If our expectations in these areas are low, we are not likely to experience wellness. Setting high standards makes every day and every decade worth looking forward to.
Greg Anderson
All adventures, especially into new territory, are scary.
Sally Ride
My late mother moved back to her parents’ homeland in the 1990s when Ukraine and Russia, along with the thirteen other former Soviet republics, became independent states.

An optimist is a guy that has never had much experience.
Don Marquis
We owned what we learned back there; the experience and the growth are grafted into our lives.

Simu Liu
I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.

The only concept or experience or core belief that I can attribute my other-ness to is that I just started out a weirdo and I stayed a weirdo. And it took me a long time to embrace my outsidership and see it as a strength rather than a weakness.
Aisha Tyler
In a person who is open to experience each stimulus is freely relayed through the nervous system, without being distorted by any process of defensiveness.

Age is relative. Experience is relative. And I think often intensity is confused with maturity.
Laura Marling
Everything that we experience every day leaves a long-lasting impression.

Oprah Winfrey
A proverb is a short sentence based on long experience.
Miguel de Cervantes
Music is an expression of individuality; it’s how you see the world. All art is, for that matter. You take how you experience the world, interpret it, and send it out there – express it – whether it’s sculpture, dance or singing.
David Sanborn
My experience has been that work is almost the best way to pull oneself out of the depths.
Eleanor Roosevelt
My mother is black, from Grenada, so my blackness was always there, but It wasn’t until I started hanging with the upperclassmen black actors at my high school that I really got my roots in being a black American, which is a distinctly different identity and experience.
Amanda Seales
At every step the child should be allowed to meet the real experience of life; the thorns should never be plucked from his roses.

Robert Parish
Body experience… is the centre of creation.
Barbara Hepworth
Every experience, good or bad, you have to learn from.

Georges Clemenceau
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Experience has shown, and a true philosophy will always show, that a vast, perhaps the larger portion of the truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.
Edgar Allan Poe
Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.
John W. Gardner
Before I was hired by Obama’s team as the CTO for his 2012 re-election campaign, I had certainly never been involved with anything of that nature before. Yet, I somehow knew I could do the job. I attribute that confidence to my experience as a hacker and the subsequent willingness to take risks.
Harper Reed
Experience is one thing you can’t get for nothing.
Oscar Wilde

There are many harsh lessons to be learned from the gambling experience, but the harshest one of all is the difference between having Fun and being Smart.
Hunter S. Thompson
Everything is a learning experience.
Angus T. Jones
Empathy begins with understanding life from another person’s perspective. Nobody has an objective experience of reality. It’s all through our own individual prisms.

Deepak Chopra
Metro Station, it was a crazy experience, because I felt like we just blew up really fast.

When they come to Europe, they are confronted by still closed borders. Thus, the concept of open borders is a very selective concept, one that is not taken seriously at all in the experience of non-Europeans.
Ulrich Beck
Any institutions’ alumni are key to its growth. We are focused on giving a global experience to our students.
Shiv Nadar
It’s widely assumed that you can’t compete with free, and that seems like a reasonable thing to think. But this has not been my experience.
John Perry Barlow
It’s good to experience Hollywood in short bursts, I guess. Little snippets. I don’t think I can handle being here all the time, it’s pretty nutty.

Kallam Anji Reddy
It’s very intense to be in front of a live audience. It’s just an amazing experience. It’s dangerous. Everything out there is heightened. The bad stuff is extra-worse. The silences are extra-silent. The good stuff is amazing. It’s electric when you walk out there. For 90 minutes, you’re on this other planet.
Steven Wright
What a blessing that God allows a life to come through your body, and then allows you to place that body in a body bag and take it out. I had to say that there’s a magnificent something that God has for me to do, to give me that level of completion. That level of experience. It’s unspeakable.
Iyanla Vanzant
There are three methods to gaining wisdom. The first is reflection, which is the highest. The second is limitation, which is the easiest. The third is experience, which is the bitterest.
Confucius

Ursula K. Le Guin
Reading a novel in which all characters illustrate patience, hard work, chastity, and delayed gratification could be a pretty dull experience.
Thomas Perry
Real misanthropes are not found in solitude, but in the world; since it is experience of life, and not philosophy, which produces real hatred of mankind.
Giacomo Leopardi
My first acting experience was a non-speaking role as a robot. My costume was a cardboard box covered in tinfoil, but I was so shy I refused to go on stage.
Jessica Raine
I have become more and more afraid about marriage and parenting. I think it’s because I am getting older. Of course, there will be a lot to learn, and I also know that the experience will help in my acting.

Reason, observation, and experience; the holy trinity of science.
Robert Green Ingersoll
If you carefully consider what you want to be said of you in the funeral experience, you will find your definition of success.

Aaron Mooy
The head learns new things, but the heart forever practices old experiences.
Henry Ward Beecher
As an actor, every opportunity, every role, everything that I do is an opportunity to have someone have a human experience with my work. I don’t just want it to be about a cute wardrobe and a high paycheck.
Viola Davis
Experience teaches us that it is much easier to prevent an enemy from posting themselves than it is to dislodge them after they have got possession.

I’m learning from my past mistakes and trying to correct them as I move forward. Experience at the international level has probably taught me what it takes to probably go out there and get a 100 or to build an innings or to win a game.
Rohit Sharma
I personally think that money can do very little. And this has been my experience all across.
Mukesh Ambani
Apple is the only company that can take hardware, software, and services and integrate those into an experience that’s an ‘aha’ for the customer. You can take that and apply to markets that we’re not in today.
Tim Cook
Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.
Hal Borland
Skill is the unified force of experience, intellect and passion in their operation.
John Ruskin
I have worked on Wall Street and on Bay Street. I started a charity and I’ve been doing it while raising four children. And I think that’s the kind of experience people want to see from their political leaders. It’s real life experience.
Caroline Mulroney
The more I thought to myself, ‘Are my thoughts right, am I being obedient enough?’ the worse it was… one of the most painful things you can experience in life is not so much physical pain, but being self-occupied. Because to the extent you are self-occupied, that’s the extent you will be in pain.
Joseph Prince
The boarding-school experience in Paris was very hard, I didn’t put up with it very well. I was sick all the time, or in any case frail, on the edge of a nervous breakdown.
Jacques Derrida
I’ve always enjoyed traveling and having experience with different cultures and different people. But it’s also a wonderful thing to be able to benefit and enable research, not only in our country but around the world.
Laurel Clark
Zumba is a great dance-cardio option that’s an immersive experience for participants and is not only effective but allows you to express yourself while getting in shape.
Jason Derulo
Development of ‘Bloodborne’ and sinking into the battle of the hunter and the unique horror world was not only an exciting experience but it also allowed me to re-acknowledge the charm of a fantasy world and the intrigue of ‘Dark Souls’ for me.
Hidetaka Miyazaki
Experience has shown how deeply the seeds of war are planted by economic rivalry and social injustice.
Harry S Truman
For my first role, I’m going to remember it forever as this incredible, positive experience, and just a miracle. The stars aligned, and it was perfect.
Julia Fox
I looked death in the eye – and it was a terrible experience.
Virgil van Dijk
It is beyond a doubt that all our knowledge begins with experience.
Immanuel Kant
But although all our knowledge begins with experience, it does not follow that it arises from experience.
Immanuel Kant
‘Spring Day’ – I wrote main lyrics based on my personal experience with old friends. It is about my sad memories with him, and it makes me sentimental whenever I listen to the song.
Suga
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
Helen Keller
Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.
Paulo Coelho
All theory is against freedom of the will; all experience for it.
Samuel Johnson
To me, the job of the artist is to provide a useful and intelligent vocabulary for the world to be able to articulate feelings they experience everyday, and otherwise wouldn’t have the means to express in a meaningful and useful way.
Mos Def
I was raised Presbyterian, but I’m not really going to church. I think the experience in meditation is pretty much where it’s at for me.
David Lynch
Women always excel men in that sort of wisdom which comes from experience. To be a woman is in itself a terrible experience.
H. L. Mencken
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.
Ernst Mach
If you really want to experience God, go and make disciples.
Francis Chan
I hold that the propositions embodied in natural science are not derived by any definite rule from the data of experience, and that they can neither be verified nor falsified by experience according to any definite rule.
Michael Polanyi
Experience should be a plus as long as it doesn’t become complacency. If you say, ‘We’re not going to change; we didn’t do it that way before,’ then you’ve become too old.
Marv Levy
You hope to bring your ‘A Game’ to any game, and of course you do in a final. You hope to bring experience, fitness, communication skills, motivational skills.
Edwin van der Sar
The sole substitute for an experience which we have not ourselves lived through is art and literature.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
We have all had the experience of finding that our reactions and perhaps even our deeds have denied beliefs we thought were ours.
James Baldwin
Experience is that marvelous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Franklin P. Jones
Most people go through life dreading they’ll have a traumatic experience. Freaks were born with their trauma. They’ve already passed their test in life. They’re aristocrats.
Diane Arbus
We’re so mixed up about religion in this culture. We say the Pledge of Allegiance, ‘under God indivisible,’ but there’s no prayer in the schools. I would be so untethered without my personal faith. I wouldn’t be able to go through a day – but that’s my own experience.
Virginia Euwer Wolff
Experience shows that success is due less to ability than to zeal.
Charles Buxton
There’s simply no substitute for experience in terms of aviation safety.
Chesley Sullenberger
Fascism says what you and I experience as facts or what reporters experience as facts are irrelevant. All that matters are impressions and emotions and myths.
Timothy D. Snyder
Chocolate milk has everything I need in a drink: the carbs, the protein, and the electrolytes. It’s even backed by science, showing how you’re able to recover. I can speak from experience, this is what I drink.
Al Horford
I just want to portray a very honest character that displays traits that people can truly relate to and can help them – the audience and myself because I learn from the characters as well – help them see themselves in a perspective that is outside of what they know already, and grow from that experience.
Kristin Kreuk
If I wanted to play soccer, I’d step out on that soccer field like I’m the best soccer player. Even though I don’t have that much experience, I always try to have that type of confidence in myself just to make people believe it.
Polo G
Writing for ‘Rooster’ was a strange experience. It’s funny, once you tap into a voice, words just start to flow. You know when you’ve hit a spirit or captured something.
Jez Butterworth
I think it’s been hard for people to understand how Islam can be a good religion, and yet the Islamists are evil. Those of us who have had experience with Islam understand this, just as we understand the difference between snake handlers and people going to church on Sunday morning.
P. J. O’Rourke
When I work, I’m thinking in terms of purely visual effects and relations, and any verbal equivalent is something that comes afterwards. But it’s inconceivable to me that I could experience things and not have them enter into my painting.
Adolph Gottlieb
I’m afraid, based on my own experience, that fascism will come to America in the name of national security.
Jim Garrison
I believe that curiosity, wonder and passion are defining qualities of imaginative minds and great teachers; that restlessness and discontent are vital things; and that intense experience and suffering instruct us in ways that less intense emotions can never do.
Kay Redfield Jamison
U2 – that’s a band that never should have existed. There’s no life experience in any of their songs.
John Lydon
Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward.
Vernon Law
If you live long enough, you’ll experience everything.
Robert Torricelli
None of us feels the true love of God till we realize how wicked we are. But you can’t teach people that – they have to learn by experience.
Dorothy L. Sayers
All those cliches, those things you hear about having a baby and motherhood – all of them are true. And all of them are the most beautiful things you will ever experience.
Penelope Cruz
Unwearied ceaseless effort is the price that must be paid for turning faith into a rich infallible experience.
Mahatma Gandhi
Trauma causes us to have an internal experience that is frightening, angry, and shameful. When we feel threatened, as we do when we are traumatized, our entire organism is geared up to find the source of that threat and to do something about it.
Peter A. Levine
I was thinking that we all learn by experience, but some of us have to go to summer school.
Peter De Vries
I used to work in a clothes store, played cricket for money, did photo shoots. It was that period of struggle which gave me the experience to be an actor. The emotions have to come from the raw material of life.
Sudeep
I am excited to join the Workday Board at an exciting time in the company’s growth and look forward to leveraging my past experience as a technologist and entrepreneur to provide advice as they continue to look at new areas of growth.
Jerry Yang
Color is an intense experience on its own.
Jim Hodges
Any place that anyone can learn something useful from someone with experience is an educational institution.
Al Capp
I think everyone should experience defeat at least once during their career. You learn a lot from it.
Lou Holtz
My experience in Amsterdam is that cyclists ride where the hell they like and aim in a state of rage at all pedestrians while ringing their bell loudly, the concept of avoiding people being foreign to them.
Terry Pratchett
The whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of color.
Hans Hofmann
I’m not a genius. I’m just a tremendous bundle of experience.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Experience is a good school. But the fees are high.
Heinrich Heine
Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a comparatively short time, but the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience and maturity.
Calvin Coolidge
The wisdom of the wise, and the experience of ages, may be preserved by quotation.
Isaac D’Israeli
I’d rather have a lot of talent and a little experience than a lot of experience and a little talent.
John Wooden
Adventure is worthwhile.
Aesop
The best compliment we ever got about the show was from a Korean veteran who was unable to talk about his war experience with his wife until ‘M*A*S*H.’ While watching the show, he was able to lean over to his wife and say, ‘See, honey, that’s the way it was.’
Gary Burghoff
I’ve been doing a lot of work on female rights, especially adolescent rights. I’ve been to a lot of schools where the UNICEF had set up villages in India, and it’s an eye-opening experience.
Priyanka Chopra
It’s not possible to experience constant euphoria, but if you’re grateful, you can find happiness in everything.
Pharrell Williams
Being a part of ‘Empire’ was a wonderful experience and opportunity to work with everyone involved.
Malik Yoba
The responsibility of a writer is to excavate the experience of the people who produced him.
James Baldwin
Going to another country you’re not in your house, you’re with people you’ve never met before, and I think it’s definitely a good growing experience.
Amanda Bynes
From my own experience, I want to say that you should follow your heart, and the mind will follow you. Believe in yourself, and you will create miracles.
Kailash Satyarthi
To be Catholic puts a lot of fear in you. It’s a great religion, but also one that can limit your experience. You fear experience because everything is a sin.
Donatella Versace
I have found life an enjoyable, enchanting, active, and sometime terrifying experience, and I’ve enjoyed it completely. A lament in one ear, maybe, but always a song in the other.
Sean O’Casey
One and done, Home Run Derby champion. It was a cool experience. I enjoyed it all, but I don’t think I really need to go out there and do it again.
Aaron Judge
The only thing we have learnt from experience is that we learn nothing from experience.
Chinua Achebe
Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away.
Walter Benjamin
My path has not been determined. I shall have more experiences and pass many more milestones.
Agnetha Faltskog
Disease is an experience of a so-called mortal mind. It is fear made manifest on the body.
Mary Baker Eddy
Creativity and insight almost always involve an experience of acute pattern recognition: the eureka moment in which we perceive the interconnection between disparate concepts or ideas to reveal something new.
Jason Silva
I regrettably wasted time at university by being overwhelmed and intimidated by the talent of other composers. I felt stuck and didn’t know what I was doing there. I enjoyed my experience, but I didn’t grab it in the way I would now.
Laura Mvula
Before people complain of the obscurity of modern poetry, they should first examine their consciences and ask themselves with how many people and on how many occasions they have genuinely and profoundly shared some experience with another.
W. H. Auden
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
Helen Keller
I think what we’re attracted to on the page is something that is very difficult to do in life, which is to examine in what seems like a moment. To examine what we can’t do in life very well, which is to be as present and accountable to what an experience is. That’s why life is short and art is very long.
Hilton Als
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.
Albert Einstein
We should not look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors, and for the purpose of profiting by dearly bought experience.
George Washington
There is nothing like a live performance. You can look at things on television, and you can look at things on YouTube, but when you get in a room full of people and you say one joke, and everyone’s laughing at the same thing, it’s a really great experience.
Loni Love
If you are lucky enough to never experience any sort of adversity, we won’t know how resilient you are. It’s only when you’re faced with obstacles, stress, and other environmental threats that resilience, or the lack of it, emerges: Do you succumb or do you surmount?
Maria Konnikova
The neurologist calls it ‘Non-REM parasomnia’. For the sufferer, it might mean rising in the middle of the night, getting your motorbike out, going for a ride, and waking in the morning with no memory of the experience.
David Hepworth
As human beings, we are vulnerable to confusing the unprecedented with the improbable. In our everyday experience, if something has never happened before, we are generally safe in assuming it is not going to happen in the future, but the exceptions can kill you and climate change is one of those exceptions.
Al Gore
Experience is a dim lamp, which only lights the one who bears it.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine
There are some hurts that we experience that can be forgiven but we won’t forget them.
Joyce Meyer
You have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions.
Mos Def
The next time you experience a blackout, take some solace by looking at the sky. You will not recognize it.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Mum wasn’t at all religious, but she thought that going to the theatre was as important a ceremonial, communal experience that a person could have.
Hayley Atwell
Romantic love can be terrifying. We experience another human being as enormously important to us. So there is surrender – not a surrender to the other person so much as to our feeling for the other person. What is the obstacle? The possibility of loss.
Nathaniel Branden
It is important to express oneself… provided the feelings are real and are taken from your own experience.
Berthe Morisot
You cannot create experience. You must undergo it.
Albert Camus
You can make people feel valued or cared for by design alone. It’s not purely about money. It’s about how we choose to value human experience.
Thomas Heatherwick
I believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do, provided he keeps doing them until he gets a record of successful experience behind him.
Eleanor Roosevelt
In my experience, there is only one motivation, and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it.
Jane Smiley
Give, give, give – what is the point of having experience, knowledge or talent if I don’t give it away? Of having stories if I don’t tell them to others? Of having wealth if I don’t share it? I don’t intend to be cremated with any of it! It is in giving that I connect with others, with the world and with the divine.
Isabel Allende
History and experience tell us that moral progress comes not in comfortable and complacent times, but out of trial and confusion.
Gerald R. Ford
When I figured out how to work my grill, it was quite a moment. I discovered that summer is a completely different experience when you know how to grill.
Taylor Swift
Working with great people makes you great; you learn a lot and it also gives you the experience and confidence to move on with your own career.
Nas
We must do our part to end poverty in Korea so that the next generation doesn’t experience what we are going through now.
Park Chung-hee
In my experience, take the Holy Spirit out of the equation of your life and it spells boring. Add it into the equation of your life and you never know where you are going to go, what you are going to do, or who you are going to meet.
Mark Batterson
Life is full of change and uncertainty. We know this. We experience it on a daily basis.
Carre Otis
When life is good and we have no problems, we can almost let ourselves believe we have no need for God. But in my experience, sometimes the richest blessings come through pain and hard things.
Anne Graham Lotz
If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself. If you want to know the theory and methods of revolution, you must take part in revolution. All genuine knowledge originates in direct experience.
Mao Zedong
Education is a private matter between the person and the world of knowledge and experience, and has little to do with school or college.
Lillian Smith
There is no compression algorithm for experience.
Andy Jassy
I always encourage people to get out there, travel the world, see new things, experience new people, experience new food, experience new culture. What happens is that helps you to grow and be your best self.
Karamo Brown
I want each experience on the ice to be everything I have.
Kaetlyn Osmond
Exile is not a time frame. Exile is an experience. It’s a sentiment.
Marco Rubio
Karma is experience, and experience creates memory, and memory creates imagination and desire, and desire creates karma again. If I buy a cup of coffee, that’s karma. I now have that memory that might give me the potential desire for having cappuccino, and I walk into Starbucks, and there’s karma all over again.
Deepak Chopra
Experience acquired in the heroic battle against Batista’s tyranny showed that the enemy, no matter what his strength, could not defeat the Cuban people.
Fidel Castro
The wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages is preserved into perpetuity by a nation’s proverbs, fables, folk sayings and quotations.
William Feather
There can be no knowledge without emotion. We may be aware of a truth, yet until we have felt its force, it is not ours. To the cognition of the brain must be added the experience of the soul.
Arnold Bennett
How wonderful to know that Christianity is more than a padded pew or a dim cathedral, but that it is a real, living, daily experience which goes on from grace to grace.
Jim Elliot
When you have balance in your life, work becomes an entirely different experience. There is a passion that moves you to a whole new level of fulfillment and gratitude, and that’s when you can do your best… for yourself and for others.
Cara Delevingne
Perception often lags behind reality, and I can say from experience that the vast majority of public officials in Louisiana are much better than our reputation holds us to be.
John Kennedy
One thorn of experience is worth a whole wilderness of warning.
James Russell Lowell
In real life we don’t know what’s going to happen next. So how can you be that way on a stage? Being alive to the possibility of not knowing exactly how everything is going to happen next – if you can find places to have that happen onstage, it can resonate with an experience of living.
Sam Shepard
The experience of using a Rolleiflex camera is very different than using a SLR.
Matthew Modine
Sometimes you are lucky, sometimes you’re unlucky. It all weighs out at the end. That is my experience at least.
Toto Wolff
I think that what’s bizarre to me about life is that sometimes you have to have everything taken away before you experience grace or before you actually recognize that grace can happen to you.
Min Jin Lee
I maybe had a first love and had my heart broken, but reflecting on it, I don’t think that was love. I think as I’m getting older and having more in-depth relationships, maybe I’ll experience it. At the moment, I don’t know, exactly, if I’ve been in love.
Selena Gomez
It is every intelligent man’s experience that evildoing recoils on the doer sooner or later.
Ramana Maharshi
In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.
Ansel Adams
But inner experience is only one source of human knowledge.
Muhammad Iqbal
It’s always a learning experience every time I’m on set.
Reece Thompson
It is only in adventure that some people succeed in knowing themselves – in finding themselves.
Andre Gide
By experience we find out a short way by a long wandering.
Roger Ascham
It was an amazing experience, a dream come true, to sing and act alongside Prince and become dear friends with all the members of The Revolution while filming ‘Purple Rain.’
Apollonia Kotero
Soul travel can be a general expansion of awareness and knowingness or conscious experience of the heavenly worlds.
Bob Hayes
Architecture produces a musical mood in our inner being, and we notice that even though the elements of architecture and music appear to be so alien in the outer world, through this musical mood engendered in us, our experience of architecture brings about a reconciliation, a balance between these two elements.
Rudolf Steiner
There is science, logic, reason; there is thought verified by experience. And then there is California.
Edward Abbey
I have definitely been curious and involved in the process; even as a young actor. I was always looking at where the camera was, what story it was telling. And as my experience grew, I wanted to know even more.
Keanu Reeves
Science means constantly walking a tightrope between blind faith and curiosity; between expertise and creativity; between bias and openness; between experience and epiphany; between ambition and passion; and between arrogance and conviction – in short, between an old today and a new tomorrow.
Heinrich Rohrer
Writing in a diary is a really strange experience for someone like me. Not only because I’ve never written anything before, but also because it seems to me that later on neither I nor anyone else will be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl.
Anne Frank
I didn’t think; I experimented.
Anthony Burgess
My experience in Iraq made me realize, and during the recovery, that I could have died. And I just had to do more with my life.
Tammy Duckworth
Our DNA is as a consumer company – for that individual customer who’s voting thumbs up or thumbs down. That’s who we think about. And we think that our job is to take responsibility for the complete user experience. And if it’s not up to par, it’s our fault, plain and simply.
Steve Jobs
Anyone can be a DJ but it’s understanding how to read a crowd and keeping them on the floor is what takes years of experience.
Jonas Blue
Creativity is an energy. It’s a precious energy, and it’s something to be protected. A lot of people take for granted that they’re a creative person, but I know from experience, feeling it in myself, it is a magic; it is an energy. And it can’t be taken for granted.
Ava DuVernay
Intersectionality draws attention to invisibilities that exist in feminism, in anti-racism, in class politics, so, obviously, it takes a lot of work to consistently challenge ourselves to be attentive to aspects of power that we don’t ourselves experience.
Kimberle Williams Crenshaw
If you think of human experience as a pie, then the wedge Hollywood is reflecting now is getting smaller and smaller.
William Goldman
I gave my beauty and my youth to men. I am going to give my wisdom and experience to animals.
Brigitte Bardot
Sex without love is a meaningless experience, but as far as meaningless experiences go its pretty damn good.
Woody Allen
Loneliness is and always has been the central and inevitable experience of every man.
Thomas Wolfe
I started out really young, when I was four, five, six, writing poems, before I could play an instrument. I was writing about things when I was eight or 10 years old that I hadn’t lived long enough to experience. That’s why I also believe in reincarnation, that we were put here with ideas to pass around.
Willie Nelson
I’ve learnt so much over time and with the experience that I’ve gained. You can’t please everyone.
Alexis Sanchez
Literature transmits incontrovertible condensed experience… from generation to generation. In this way literature becomes the living memory of a nation.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Conversion for me was not a Damascus Road experience. I slowly moved into an intellectual acceptance of what my intuition had always known.
Madeleine L’Engle
I keep saying this, and I truly mean this: I think that when you experience true love, it never really goes away.
Inbar Lavi
If experience has taught me anything, it’s to make every day as good as possible. You learn that with age, as it goes by so quick.
Jerry Hall
I loved the material when I first read it, and the experience of making the film was a great one. So when we came around to complete the trilogy, I just signed on board without even reading the scripts because the experience of the first film was so good.
Keanu Reeves
Experience has taught me, when I am shaving of a morning, to keep watch over my thoughts, because, if a line of poetry strays into my memory, my skin bristles so that the razor ceases to act.
A. E. Housman
What keeps me going are my learnings, which I would rather call my ‘experience,’ and my urge to explore.
Sushant Singh Rajput
Tragedy makes you grow up.
Jane Campion
Every experience makes you grow.
Elisabeth Shue
Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.
Henry David Thoreau
As an artist, the more experience, the better the creation. I’m a very positive person.
Psy
It’s very exciting to have a festival in the heart of Boston. It’s an amazing experience to be in a city and to be able to walk in and out of a festival. I think that’s part of what’s going to make Boston Calling really special.
Aaron Dessner
Adolescence is a time in which you experience everything more intensely.
Edward Zwick
The first core value we have is that everyone deserves a Cinderella experience. And I have experienced a Cinderella experience. And I really believe that most people who’ve come to Rent the Runway have had a Cinderella experience.
Jennifer Hyman
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment.
Rita Mae Brown
Japan is the most intoxicating place for me. In Kyoto, there’s an inn called the Tawaraya which is quite extraordinary. The Japanese culture fascinates me: the food, the dress, the manners and the traditions. It’s the travel experience that has moved me the most.
Roman Coppola
While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits, my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who’s out there just for the experience.
Craig Kelly
Democracy is not merely a form of government. It is primarily a mode of associated living, of conjoint communicated experience. It is essentially an attitude of respect and reverence towards fellow men.
B. R. Ambedkar
The only source of knowledge is experience.
Albert Einstein
An identity would seem to be arrived at by the way in which the person faces and uses his experience.
James Baldwin
Twitter is the ultimate service for the mobile age – its simplification and constraint of the publishing medium to 140 characters is perfectly complementary to a mobile experience. People still need longer stuff, but they see the headline on Twitter or Facebook.
Matt Mullenweg
Experience is the child of thought, and thought is the child of action.
Benjamin Disraeli
Every outing is a learning experience.
Drew Pomeranz
I love being immersed in nature, going to places in the world that are pristine and untouched by man. It’s almost a religious experience when you go to a place like the Amazon, and there’s no civilisation for thousands of miles.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Experience is making mistakes and learning from them.
Bill Ackman
The spirituality that I experience sometimes touches on religion, in that I resonate with the thread of continuity that permeates through all religions. But in terms of it being a concretized, organized part of my life, it’s not.
Alanis Morissette
Experience teaches slowly, and at the cost of mistakes.
James Anthony Froude
All of Africa’s resources should be declared resources of the state and managed by the nation. Our experience in Bolivia shows that when you take control of natural resources for the people of the town and village, major world change is possible.
Evo Morales
Deep experience is never peaceful.
Henry James
I got to experience soccer at the highest level at a young age; I decided I wanted to be part of that for as long as possible.
Mia Hamm
Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
The immediacy of mystic experience simply means that we know God just as we know other objects. God is not a mathematical entity or a system of concepts mutually related to one another and having no reference to experience.
Muhammad Iqbal
I think the more realistic you try to make the graphics and the experience, the more you limit yourself to a single vision.
Markus Persson
Every experience, good or bad, is a learning process.
Gary Cahill
Bill Clinton’s foreign policy experience stems mainly from having breakfast at the International House of Pancakes.
Pat Buchanan
You cannot, in human experience, rush into the light. You have to go through the twilight into the broadening day before the noon comes and the full sun is upon the landscape.
Woodrow Wilson
That night at Carnegie Hall was a great experience. When the thing was first put up to me I was a little dubious, not knowing just what would be expected of us.
Benny Goodman
Most of us experience a life full of wonderful moments and difficult moments. But for many of us, even when we are most joyful, there is fear behind our joy.
Thich Nhat Hanh
Other people do not have to change for us to experience peace of mind.
Gerald Jampolsky
Travel is a new experience that can transport you out of your everyday routine to create memories with the ones you love.
Brian Chesky
Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn.
William Nicholson
My mom said, ‘Don’t get married. You’re too young. Go out there and experience what life has to offer.’ And I did.
Emmitt Smith
The amount of meetings I’ve been in – people would be shocked. But that’s how you gain experience, how you can gain knowledge, being in meetings and participating. You learn and grow.
Tiger Woods
Although our inattention can contribute to our lack of total well-being, we also have the power to choose positive behaviors and responses. In that choice we change our every experience of life!
Greg Anderson
While films are a very visual and emotional artistic medium, video games take it one step further into the realm of a unique personal experience.
Jet Li
Food is our common ground, a universal experience.
James Beard
To most men experience is like the stern lights of a ship, which illuminate only the track it has passed.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Experience is a good teacher, but she sends in terrific bills.
Minna Antrim
Masterpieces are not single and solitary births; they are the outcome of many years of thinking in common, of thinking by the body of the people, so that the experience of the mass is behind the single voice.
Virginia Woolf
Imagination is a very potent thing, and in the uneducated often usurps the place of genuine experience.
H. P. Lovecraft
Every day is a new experience and I take it as it comes.
Zac Efron
What is the price of experience? Do men buy it for a song? Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children.
William Blake
Love is an emotion that is based on an opinion of women that is impossible for those who have had any experience with them.
H. L. Mencken
Any musical person who has never heard a Negro congregation under the spell of religious fervor sing these old songs has missed one of the most thrilling emotions which the human heart may experience.
James Weldon Johnson
I never give advice unless someone asks me for it. One thing I’ve learned, and possibly the only advice I have to give, is to not be that person giving out unsolicited advice based on your own personal experience.
Taylor Swift
In times of rapid change, experience could be your worst enemy.
J. Paul Getty
Humans are distinguished from other species by a massive brain that enables us to imagine a future and influence it by what we do in the present. By using experience, knowledge and insight, our ancestors recognized they could anticipate dangers and opportunities and take steps to exploit advantages and avoid hazards.
David Suzuki
Such happiness as life is capable of comes from the full participation of all our powers in the endeavor to wrest from each changing situations of experience its own full and unique meaning.
John Dewey
The more you do, the more experience you have and the next time it will be easier to choose the right thing.
Andy Lau
Man learns through experience, and the spiritual path is full of different kinds of experiences. He will encounter many difficulties and obstacles, and they are the very experiences he needs to encourage and complete the cleansing process.
Sai Baba
As between mileage and experience choose experience.
Clifton Fadiman
Having had that experience… I think, what modern culture wants to see is the relationship with the woman. I don’t think you can tell a story on film nowadays where the woman simply is there for the man when he decides to settle down.
Tom Selleck
Your life will be a blessed and balanced experience if you first honor your identity and priority.
Russell M. Nelson
For an average noun or an average verb, an average mind can quickly create reference. Where did they hear it? See it? What does it remind them of? What is its connection? When was it last used in conversation? What has been my experience with it? A host of memories appear when you hear a word you remember.
Javed Akhtar
If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must Man be of learning from experience.
George Bernard Shaw
In order to experience everyday spirituality, we need to remember that we are spiritual beings spending some time in a human body.
Barbara De Angelis
We respect our elders. There is wisdom that comes from experience, and I am not going to stop learning from wise counsel.
Marcia Fudge
Every day is a learning experience for city kids, and they are really sort of forced to interact with everyone around them and develop into social beings.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck
It is impossible to remain indifferent to Japanese culture. It is a different civilisation where all you have learnt must be forgotten. It is a great intellectual challenge and a gorgeous sensual experience.
Alain Ducasse
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
Soren Kierkegaard
I lived in a dictatorship in Brazil, and I was arrested three times. I felt in my flesh what it is to live under such a regime and experience deprivation of freedom.
Paulo Coelho
I speak to the black experience, but I am always talking about the human condition.
Maya Angelou
When I moved to Minnesota, I found there was a thriving and determined movement, a grassroots movement, to revitalize the Ojibwe language. And I’ve never come to be a competent speaker. I have to say that right now. But even learning the amount of Ojibwe that one can at my age is a life-altering experience.
Louise Erdrich
A leader who confines his role to his people’s experience dooms himself to stagnation; a leader who outstrips his people’s experience runs the risk of not being understood.
Henry Kissinger
In my experience, poor people are the world’s greatest entrepreneurs. Every day, they must innovate in order to survive. They remain poor because they do not have the opportunities to turn their creativity into sustainable income.
Muhammad Yunus
I love just getting to experience the different types of fans and getting to perform in front of thousands of people every night; that is icing on the cake for me. That is the fun.
Baron Corbin
Let me say that I consider myself a deep believer in the reality of God. I might define God quite differently from the way some people in the Christian faith would do so, but I do not doubt the reality of that experience.
John Shelby Spong
I grew up in war and saw the United Nations help my country to recover and rebuild. That experience was a big part of what led me to pursue a career in public service. As Secretary-General, I am determined to see this organization deliver tangible, meaningful results that advance peace, development and human rights.
Ban Ki-moon
Food is not just eating energy. It’s an experience.
Guy Fieri
I’m not there to tailor the role to me: I’m there to tailor me to the role. That guarantees me something, a precious thing, which is creativity. I’m guaranteed that I will have a creative experience, because I will go to it, not demand that it comes to me.
William Hurt
I don’t know about changing my perspective, because motherhood is such a glorious blessing and I am very thankful for that. It’s such a beautiful experience. I so strongly recommend it. It’s bliss, love and fulfillment of another level.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
There is no winning or losing, but rather the value is in the experience of imagining yourself as a character in whatever genre you’re involved in, whether it’s a fantasy game, the Wild West, secret agents or whatever else. You get to sort of vicariously experience those things.
Gary Gygax
I think experience will teach you a combination of liberalism and conservatism. We have to be progressive and at the same time we have to retain values. We have to hold onto the past as we explore the future.
Oliver Stone
The Classics are those books which constitute a treasured experience for those who have read and loved them; but they remain just as rich an experience for those who reserve the chance to read them for when they are in the best condition to enjoy them.
Italo Calvino
Judgement comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgement.
Simon Bolivar
I’m a risk-taker. Most of my career has not been a joyful experience, but it has been challenging. I like the dangers.
Michael Douglas
The psychology of sport is so important. When you are standing at the crease, in front of a stadium full of people, it’s a pretty intense experience. So you need to have the psychological tools to control your mind and deliver your best performance.
Jos Buttler
The European Union has decades of experience in overcoming crises and has always emerged stronger after.
Jean-Claude Juncker
Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.
George Washington
We experience moments absolutely free from worry. These brief respites are called panic.
Cullen Hightower
People know who Carlo Ancelotti is. He’s a man with a lot of experience.
Edgar Davids
How do people relate to movies now, when they’re on portable devices or streaming them? It’s not as much about going to the movies. That experience has changed.
Keanu Reeves
Coming to Harvard was an eye-opening experience because there’s so much diversity on campus.
Ryan Fitzpatrick
The world sometimes feels like an insane asylum. You can decide whether you want to be an inmate or pick up your visitor’s badge. You can be in the world but not engage in the melodrama of it; you can become a spiritual being having a human experience thoroughly and fully.
Deepak Chopra
I – my experience was really no different from any other immigrant that came to this country. It was rough.
Rita Moreno
I want to do everything. That’s my problem. Life is short, and I hate the idea of turning down anything. You never know what interesting experience might happen.
Joshua Bell
Myth is an attempt to narrate a whole human experience, of which the purpose is too deep, going too deep in the blood and soul, for mental explanation or description.
D. H. Lawrence
Natural abilities are like natural plants, that need pruning by study; and studies themselves do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience.
Francis Bacon
Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.
Ambrose Bierce
If you haven’t used Bitcoin first-hand, you may not get the inherent advantage of a quicker appreciation and understanding of its potential. Seeing assets move swiftly without intermediaries is an eye opening experience, and that is just a starting point.
William Mougayar
The world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.
Erwin Schrodinger
Characterization is integral to the theatrical experience.
Robert Ludlum
It was the experience of mystery – even if mixed with fear – that engendered religion.
Albert Einstein
Information’s pretty thin stuff unless mixed with experience.
Clarence Day
I had a lot of experience with people smarter than I am.
Gerald R. Ford
The sky is the limit. You never have the same experience twice.
Frank McCourt
I think art, especially literature, has the particular power to immerse the viewer or reader into another world. This is especially powerful in literature, when a reader lives the experience of the characters. So if the characters are human and real enough, then readers will feel empathy for them.
Jesmyn Ward
A lot of people in our industry haven’t had very diverse experiences. So they don’t have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.
Steve Jobs
