Every performance has provided a learning experience, and as we go, we keep fine-tuning the shows. If we decide to do a tour, we rehearse until we perfect. One thing that I do prior to every show is that we huddle the band and pray. We thank more than we ask.
J Balvin
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
Every secret of a writer’s soul, every experience of his life, every quality of his mind is written large in his works.
Virginia Woolf
Where you are in consciousness has everything to do with what you see in experience.
Eric Butterworth

Jon Bon Jovi
Characterization is integral to the theatrical experience.
Robert Ludlum
The educator must believe in the potential power of his pupil, and he must employ all his art in seeking to bring his pupil to experience this power.
Alfred Adler
The experience of life that you and I have is pretty much a jigsaw puzzle in the box: Day-to-day experiences of disconnected pieces that don’t seem to justify the efforts we make each day.
Robert Adams
I try to be respectful about getting an honor or recognition, but I don’t really know what the Rock Hall actually is. In my experience with the people who run it, I don’t see it having to do with anything other than them making money.
Axl Rose
Language fits over experience like a straight-jacket.
William Golding
My parents always taught me to be humble no matter what the experience, to not think I was better than anyone else.
Robert Parish
Every outing is a learning experience.
Drew Pomeranz
When my father died, I had a real experience with Christ, a real conversion with Christ and I had it in a Oneness church.
T. D. Jakes
I find the experience of keeping a journal much more creative on paper than on a computer. When I write, I’m physically immersed in the world and slow down, whereas on screen, I use my senses in a less engaged way – and I skim more.
Keri Smith
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
Each morning when I awake, I experience again a supreme pleasure – that of being Salvador Dali.
Salvador Dali
The great thing about Snapchat is your fans can get a detailed experience of what your life is like behind the scenes.
Antonio Brown
When I figured out how to work my grill, it was quite a

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
A lot of people seem to feel that joy is only the most intense version of pleasure, arrived at by the same road – you simply have to go a little further down the track. That has not been my experience.
Zadie Smith
Genius is the ability to renew one’s emotions in daily experience.
Paul Cezanne
I’ve never felt like I was in the cookie business. I’ve always been in a feel good feeling business. My job is to sell joy. My job is to sell happiness. My job is to sell an experience.
Debbi Fields
The true mark of professionalism is the ability to respect everyone else for their styles and always find something positive in every dining experience and highlight it in your thoughts and words.
Johnny Iuzzini
I didn’t think; I experimented.
Anthony Burgess
Judgment comes from experience – and experience comes from bad judgment.
Walter Wriston
Literature overtakes history, for literature gives you more than one life. It expands experience and opens new opportunities to readers.
Carlos Fuentes
One has to go beyond the mind to experience the spiritual bliss of desirelessness.
Meher Baba
All experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades for ever and for ever when I move.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
It’s a lovely experience walking around a museum by yourself.
Brad Pitt
I firmly believe that all human beings have access to extraordinary energies and powers. Judging from accounts of mystical experience, heightened creativity, or exceptional performance by athletes and artists, we harbor a greater life than we know.
Jean Houston
Happiness isn’t something you experience; it’s something you remember.
Oscar Levant
Many of the lessons we are to learn in mortality can only be received through the things we experience and sometimes suffer. And God expects and trusts us to face temporary mortal adversity with His help so we can learn what we need to learn and ultimately become what we are to become in eternity.
David A. Bednar
The biology of mind bridges the sciences – concerned with the natural world – and the humanities – concerned with the meaning of human experience.
Eric Kandel
The only thing we have learnt from experience is that we learn nothing from experience.
Chinua Achebe
I looked death in the eye – and it was a terrible experience.
Virgil van Dijk
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
Every country should conduct its own reforms, should develop its own model, taking into account the experience of other countries, whether close neighbours or far away countries.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Any place that anyone can learn something useful from someone with experience is an educational institution.
Al Capp
In software design, it’s all about making a guess, trying it, and then learning from the experience.
Stewart Butterfield
Definitely working on ‘Deal or No Deal’ was a learning experience, and it helped me to understand what I would rather be doing.
Meghan Markle
In my experience, there is only one motivation, and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it.
Jane Smiley
Being in love is the only transcendent experience.
Armistead Maupin
If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.
C. S. Lewis
Fatigue is what we experience, but it is what a match is to an atomic bomb.
Laura Hillenbrand
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.
John Stuart Mill
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
I was extremely honoured and privileged to have had the opportunity to visit Oxford University. It was a great experience to share personal anecdotes from my career and my journey and to indulge in a fun interactive session with the students there.
Sanya Malhotra
Ordinary professionalism and 20 years’ experience can accomplish a lot, but it can’t access the hidden places.
Jeanette Winterson
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
Zumba is a great dance-cardio option that's an immersiv

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
I am a woman in process. I’m just trying like everybody else. I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it. Life is never dull.
Oprah Winfrey
Experience praises the most happy the one who made the most people happy.
Karl Marx
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
Racism exists, but it is far less rampant than ignorance, and ignorance can be cured through experience.
Candace Owens
Reading a novel in which all characters illustrate patience, hard work, chastity, and delayed gratification could be a pretty dull experience.
Thomas Perry
In most parts of the world, starting a company that goes bust is dubbed a ‘failure.’ In Silicon Valley, we call this ‘gaining experience.’ We are willing to take the risks that are inherent for innovation.
Sebastian Thrun
‘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
Reason, observation, and experience; the holy trinity of science.
Robert Green Ingersoll
My mom said, ‘Don’t get married. You’re too young. Go out there and experience what life has to offer.’ And I did.

To most men experience is like the stern lights of a ship, which illuminate only the track it has passed.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Experience – the wisdom that enables us to recognise in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced.
Ambrose Bierce
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
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
At 100, I have a mind that is superior – thanks to experience – than when I was 20.
Rita Levi-Montalcini
Adventure is worthwhile.
Aesop
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
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
There’s a beauty to wisdom and experience that cannot be faked. It’s impossible to be mature without having lived.
Amy Grant
The more experience you got the more things you are able to go through, and the ups and downs through a season that you had I don’t think it can do anything but make you that much better.
Aaron Donald
Experience teaches only the teachable.
Aldous Huxley
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
Experience has shown how deeply the seeds of war are planted by economic rivalry and social injustice.
Harry S Truman
Painting is the most magical of mediums. The transcendence is truly amazing to me every time I go to a museum and I see how somebody figured another way to rub colored dirt on a flat surface and make space where there is no space or make you think of a life experience.
Chuck Close
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
Shooting for ‘Paathshaala’ was a good experience. I learnt a lot.
Sunny Singh
It is important to express oneself… provided the feelings are real and are taken from your own experience.
Berthe Morisot
When I worked at my father’s deli in Carmel, New York when I was young, my experience waiting on customers and interacting with people all day taught me so many social skills and helped me open up.
Mandy Rose
Everyone has a purpose in life and a unique talent to give to others. And when we blend this unique talent with service to others, we experience the ecstasy and exultation of own spirit, which is the ultimate goal of all goals.
Kallam Anji Reddy
When you come into my pieces, it’s not an intellectual experience, it’s a physical experience. It’s coming at your body. There’s light, there’s sound, the lights in some pieces are going on and off. There’s loud roaring sound happening.
Bill Viola
Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.
John W. Gardner
The events that I have attended to mark my Diamond Jubi

The events that I have attended to mark my Diamond Jubilee have been a humbling experience. It has touched me deeply to see so many thousands of families, neighbors and friends celebrating together in such a happy atmosphere.
Queen Elizabeth II
Donald Trump is a phenomenon that foreign countries haven’t seen. So it is a shocking experience to them that he came in to office.
Henry Kissinger
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
Experience tells you what to do; confidence allows you to do it.
Stan Smith
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
Experience teaches slowly, and at the cost of mistakes.
James Anthony Froude
As you get older, you want less from the world; you just want to experience it. Any barriers to feeling emotions get dismantled. And ordinary things become beautifully poetic.

Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.
Ambrose Bierce
Breathe-in experience, breathe-out poetry.
Muriel Rukeyser
You can’t build any kind of organization if you’re not going to surround yourself with people who have experience and skill base beyond your own.

A kite needs to be tied down in order to fly. I learned how important restrictions can sometimes be in order to experience freedom.
Damien Rice
Experience is the cane of the blind.
Jacques Roumain
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
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.
Marina Abramovic
My trust in God flows out of the experience of his loving me, day in and day out, whether the day is stormy or fair, whether I’m sick or in good health, whether I’m in a state of grace or disgrace. He comes to me where I live and loves me as I am.
Brennan Manning
It’s always a wonderful experience to keep working.
Lamman Rucker
If we are faithful to God in little things, we shall gain experience and strength that will be helpful to us in the more serious trials of life.

Mysteriously and in ways that are totally remote from natural experience, the gray drizzle of horror induced by depression takes on the quality of physical pain.
William Styron
Someone who has experienced trauma also has gifts to offer all of us – in their depth, their knowledge of our universal vulnerability, and their experience of the power of compassion.
Sharon Salzberg
Imagination is a very potent thing, and in the uneducated often usurps the place of genuine experience.
H. P. Lovecraft
The experience of using a Rolleiflex camera is very different than using a SLR.
Matthew Modine
I moved from Kentucky to Miramar, Florida, at about 8. I think I was in second grade. I still had my Southern accent, and down there, you got to experience a melting pot in full fury. All the kids I hung out with were, like, Sicilian kids from Jersey and New York.
Johnny Depp
Experience, as a desire for experience, does not come off. We must not study ourselves while having an experience.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I don’t have prejudices against anybody. I have opinions, based on a lifetime’s experience.
A. A. Gill
The Mirror Stage as formative in the function of the I as revealed in psychoanalytic experience.
Jacques Lacan
Every opportunity I got, I took it as a learning experience.
Satya Nadella
I had a lot of experience with people smarter than I am.
Gerald R. Ford
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
I’ve always said that the experience of meeting an artist that you are in awe of and that you hope to create with one day is usually disappointing because you put them up on a pedestal, and then you’re like, ‘Wow, that’s not a nice person.’
Sandra Bullock
There was a point where I was just saying to myself, br

There was a point where I was just saying to myself, breathe. Inhale, because I felt really heavy – I felt like those cartoons when they experience G and your face is just sagging down.
Victor J. Glover
Being exposed to theory, stimulated by a basic love of concepts and mathematics, was a marvelous experience.
Rudolph A. Marcus
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
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
We are in the midst of a momentous catastrophe of world history, of a transformation of all aspects of life and of the entire inner human being This is perhaps fortunate for the artistic person, if he is strong enough to bear the consequences, because what we need is the courage to have inner experience.
Walter Gropius
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.
Johnny Depp
I keep wondering how to explain the experience of child abuse from the inside. I’m going to try to explain what my world was like when I was sexually abused. The thing you have to remember is that this was the thinking of a child.
Robin Quivers
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.
Gary Gygax
It is important to expect nothing, to take every experience, including the negative ones, as merely steps on the path, and to proceed.
Ram Dass
The main experiential determinants of moral development seem to be amount and variety of social experience, the opportunity to take a number of roles and to encounter other perspectives.
Lawrence Kohlberg
So much of our training focuses so much on the systems and how to operate the station, and not just the day-to-day life in terms of slowing down and enjoying the experience.
Shannon Walker
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
See any detour as an opportunity to experience new things.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
Daniel Masters is a master of the commodities markets with over 30 years experience. His bitcoin strategy is based on the parallels he sees from the oil industry in 1999 to the current state of bitcoin.
Perianne Boring
While teaching, I also worked undercover in the lower courts by saying I was a young law teacher wanting experience in criminal law. The judges were happy to assist me but what I learned was how corrupt the lower courts were. Judges were accepting money right in the courtroom.
Samuel Dash
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
What is the basic principle of democracy? In the end, it is loyalty to the nation. We Central Europeans know from historical experience that sooner or later, we will lose our freedom if we do not represent the interests of our citizens.
Viktor Orban
Jiro Ono serves Edo-style traditional sushi, the same 20 or 30 pieces he’s been making his whole life, and he’s still unsatisfied with the quality and every day wakes up and trains to make the best. And that is as close to a religious experience in food as one is likely to get.
Anthony Bourdain
Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life’s deepest joy: true fulfillment.
Tony Robbins
Certainly all historical experience confirms the truth – that man would not have attained the possible unless time and again he had reached out for the impossible.
Max Weber
I think that music, being an expression of the human heart, or of the human being itself, does express just what is happening – the whole of human experience at the particular time that it is being expressed.
John Coltrane
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
Never, never and never again shall it be that this beautiful land will again experience the oppression of one by another.
Nelson Mandela
There are some hurts that we experience that can be forgiven but we won’t forget them.
Joyce Meyer
Like success, failure is many things to many people. With Positive Mental Attitude, failure is a learning experience, a rung on the ladder, a plateau at which to get your thoughts in order and prepare to try again.
W. Clement Stone
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
Theories are always very thin and insubstantial, experience only is tangible.
Hosea Ballou
If we didn’t want to upset anyone, we would make films about sewing, but even that could be dangerous. But I think finally, in a film, it is how the balance is and the feelings are. But I think there has to be those contrasts and strong things within a film for the total experience.
David Lynch
It’s an enthralling experience to be in front of the mic and record a song.
Aditi Rao Hydari
That experience with ‘Rent’ went by so fast. I was younger. I didn’t even really know what opening night was. And now I’m thinking back on the times I went to Broadway as a kid and the excitement I felt… And I’m realizing that I’m actually a part of that, so I’m learning to take it in, ’cause so often I shrug it away.
Idina Menzel
Being a part of ‘Empire’ was a wonderful experience and opportunity to work with everyone involved.
Malik Yoba
Our DNA is as a consumer company - for that individual

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
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
It’s not possible to experience constant euphoria, but if you’re grateful, you can find happiness in everything.
Pharrell Williams
God’s way of answering the Christian’s prayer for more patience, experience, hope and love often is to put him into the furnace of affliction.
Richard Cecil
My experience has been that work is almost the best way to pull oneself out of the depths.
Eleanor Roosevelt
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
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
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.
Samuel Smiles
I don’t have to have faith, I have experience.
Joseph Campbell
Never become so much of an expert that you stop gaining expertise. View life as a continuous learning experience.
Denis Waitley
To have God speak to the heart is a majestic experience, an experience that people may miss if they monopolize the conversation and never pause to hear God’s responses.
Charles Stanley
Surely all art is the result of one’s having been in danger, of having gone through an experience all the way to the end, where no one can go any further.
Rainer Maria Rilke
But inner experience is only one source of human knowledge.
Muhammad Iqbal
Everything is a learning experience.
Angus T. Jones
I gave myself permission to feel and experience all of my emotions. In order to do that, I had to stop being afraid to feel. In order to do that, I taught myself to believe that no matter what I felt or what happened when I felt it, I would be okay.
Iyanla Vanzant
If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.
John Heywood
It’s so different when you change your hair color, you’re treated so differently. It’s a very funny experience. It’s fun – I love changing up my hair.
Kate Bosworth
I think the only way for you to grow and evolve is to keep listening, keep moving forward, keep jumping in and trying to experience.
Dianne Reeves
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
I do have my own personal convictions and values, and I live by those. But as an artist, as a portrait photographer, my job is to tell the truth and to capture someone’s spirit on a certain day. And it’s never the whole truth; it’s the truth I experience in a very intense and intimate fashion.
Platon
A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way.
Mark Twain
Recommend virtue to your children; it alone, not money, can make them happy. I speak from experience.
Ludwig van Beethoven
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 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
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
Fame will go by and, so long, I’ve had you, fame. If it goes by, I’ve always known it was fickle. So at least it’s something I experience, but that’s not where I live.
Marilyn Monroe
To walk into the hall of mirrors of Versailles as Louis XIV and deliver a monologue on your own in an empty hall of mirrors is like no other experience.
George Blagden
Do you know the difference between education and experience? Education is when you read the fine print; experience is what you get when you don’t.
Pete Seeger
We experience moments absolutely free from worry. These brief respites are called panic.
Cullen Hightower
If you live long enough, you’ll experience everything.
Robert Torricelli
The value of experience is not in seeing much, but in seeing wisely.
William Osler
Experience is a dim lamp, which only lights the one who

Experience is a dim lamp, which only lights the one who bears it.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine
Education is when you read the fine print. Experience is what you get if you don’t.
Pete Seeger
When you have really exhausted an experience you always reverence and love it.
Albert Camus
The historian must have some conception of how men who are not historians behave. Otherwise he will move in a world of the dead. He can only gain that conception through personal experience, and he can only use his personal experiences when he is a genius.
E. M. Forster
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
It’s a great, great experience to finally get the reception that you know you rightfully deserve.
Kendrick Lamar
Missionary work has never been easy, and yet the joyful rewards cannot be equaled by any other experience.
Gordon B. Hinckley
Age is only a number, a cipher for the records. A man can’t retire his experience. He must use it. Experience achieves more with less energy and time.
Bernard Baruch
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
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
At the end of the day, you are in control of your own happiness. Life is going to happen whether you overthink it, overstress it or not. Just experience life and be happy along the way. You can’t control everything in your life, but you can control your happiness.
Holly Holm
Carrying a baby is the most rewarding experience a woman can enjoy.
Jayne Mansfield
Food is our common ground, a universal experience.
James Beard
I had rather have a fool to make me merry than experience to make me sad and to travel for it too!
William Shakespeare
Cinematography is so much about instinct and intuition – you want the same range of experience going into behind the camera as what you see in front of it. Your life experience will come through the lens.
Rachel Morrison
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
Travel is a new experience that can transport you out of your everyday routine to create memories with the ones you love.
Brian Chesky
I’ve been lucky enough – well, maybe unlucky enough – to have had a lot of friends who have had their ups and downs. And for an actor, that’s good. Life experience in any regard is good. So I’ve seen a lot and I’ve had my own experiences.
Chris Evans
It’s an interesting combination: Having a great fear of being alone, and having a desperate need for solitude and the solitary experience. That’s always been a tug of war for me.
Jodie Foster
I’m afraid, based on my own experience, that fascism will come to America in the name of national security.
Jim Garrison
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
There is science, logic, reason; there is thought verified by experience. And then there is California.
Edward Abbey
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
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
Tactics, fitness, stroke ability, adaptability, experience, and sportsmanship are all necessary for winning.
Fred Perry
Recently, I was asked if I was going to fire an employee who made a mistake that cost the company $600,000. No, I replied, I just spent $600,000 training him. Why would I want somebody to hire his experience?
Thomas J. Watson
In times of rapid change, experience could be your worst enemy.
J. Paul Getty
If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word of mouth is very powerful.
Jeff Bezos
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
I once had an extraordinary experience with former prime minister Ted Heath. Both of his eyes, including the whites, turned jet black, and I seemed to be looking into two black holes.
David Icke
The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.
Sigmund Freud
All experience is subjective.

All experience is subjective.
Gregory Bateson
We will hire someone with less experience, less education, and less expertise than someone who has more of those things and has a rotten attitude. Because we can train people. We can teach people how to lead. We can teach people how to provide customer service. But we can’t change their DNA.
Herb Kelleher
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
I grew up like a neglected weed – ignorant of liberty, having no experience of it.
Harriet Tubman
Life is the only real counselor; wisdom unfiltered through personal experience does not become a part of the moral tissue.
Edith Wharton
The wisdom of the wise, and the experience of ages, may be preserved by quotation.
Isaac D’Israeli
Literature transmits incontrovertible condensed experience… from generation to generation. In this way literature becomes the living memory of a nation.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
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
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
The head learns new things, but the heart forever practices old experiences.
Henry Ward Beecher
The train system in India is chaotic and fun – it’s the best way to see the landscape. Being in with all the families and also being the odd animal is a colourful experience you’ll never forget.
Natalie Dormer
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
I understand now that the vulnerability I’ve always felt is the greatest strength a person can have. You can’t experience life without feeling life. What I’ve learned is that being vulnerable to somebody you love is not a weakness, it’s a strength.
Elisabeth Shue
I find, by experience, that the mind and the body are more than married, for they are most intimately united; and when one suffers, the other sympathizes.
Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield
There’s full consensus in the military that women shouldn’t be in person-to-person combat. I don’t know if we have enough experience to know whether this is the right approach. But women can be elsewhere. We have mandatory military service in Chile. I pushed for women in all areas.
Michelle Bachelet
‘Jersey Boys’ has been the most amazing experience ever and has exposed an entire new audience to the music. It’s great to see people of all ages coming to the show.
Frankie Valli
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
Example is the best precept.
Aesop
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
Personal experience is the basis of all real Literature.
George Henry Lewes
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
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
By experience we find out a short way by a long wandering.
Roger Ascham
I think I’m basically the same guy I always was. Maybe I’ve learned, through experience, to rein in some of the anger and temper they say redheads normally have.
Willie Nelson
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
You can’t get a job without experience and you can’t get experience until you have a job. Once you solve that problem you are home free.
Jack Buck
Coming to Harvard was an eye-opening experience because there’s so much diversity on campus.
Ryan Fitzpatrick
At every step the child should be allowed to meet the real experience of life; the thorns should never be plucked from his roses.
Ellen Key
Everything we do, every decision we make, is to ensure the best possible Airbnb experience for our community and grow the love.
Joe Gebbia
Experience is one thing you can’t get for nothing.
Oscar Wilde
In fiction, you have a rough idea what’s coming up next – sometimes you even make a little outline – but in fact you don’t know. Each day is a whole new – and for me, a very invigorating – experience.
Peter Matthiessen
It is impossible to remain indifferent to Japanese cult

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
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
Take time to gather up the past so that you will be able to draw from your experience and invest them in the future.
Jim Rohn
You learn from a conglomeration of the incredible past – whatever experience gotten in any way whatsoever.
Bob Dylan
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
There is nothing so easy to learn as experience and nothing so hard to apply.
Josh Billings
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
I think there’s a lot of learning process in figuring out what things you want to do and shouldn’t do. Maturing in that way is something that comes with experience and time.
Matt Harvey
Barcelona is one of the best cities in the world. I love it there. I love Big Sur. It’s stunning and you get a therapeutic experience there. The drive up the coast is one of the most beautiful I’ve ever done. Also, Hong Kong. I could easily live there!
Meghan Markle
I am not a yachting person, by nature, but I have just enough experience on the sea under sail to feel a certain nostalgia for it when I see a big white racing yacht heeled over at cruising speed on the ocean, and I can still tie a mean bowline knot on just about anything in less than 10 seconds.
Hunter S. Thompson
Very often I’ve known people who wouldn’t say a word to each other, but they’d go to see movies together and experience life that way.
Martin Scorsese
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
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
American history and the black experience are inextricable. And both are inextricable from policing. Far more often than not, that’s been a good thing.
William Bratton
What one has not experienced, one will never understand in print.
Isadora Duncan
Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.
Oscar Wilde
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
Simplicity is the most difficult thing to secure in this world; it is the last limit of experience and the last effort of genius.
George Sand
I made decisions that I regret, and I took them as learning experiences… I’m human, not perfect, like anybody else.
Queen Latifah
Compton looks a lot of different. Residents are now able to go out and grab a bite, go to dinner, go to Target, Best Buy or a gym or Marshall’s. We’re now able to experience more amenities. I want to see that grow.
Aja Brown
Living in a rural setting exposes you to so many marvelous things – the natural world and the particular texture of small-town life, and the exhilarating experience of open space.
Susan Orlean
The pain of powerlessness is excruciating. It is the most painful experience in the earth school, and everyone shares it.
Gary Zukav
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
I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
Robert Fulghum
It is costly wisdom that is bought by experience.
Roger Ascham
Other people do not have to change for us to experience peace of mind.
Gerald Jampolsky
It was a great learning experience to work with all the stalwarts associated with ‘Beyond the Clouds.’ It’s indeed a strong team to be working with.
Ishaan Khatter
Most of the images of reality on which we base our actions are really based on vicarious experience.
Albert Bandura
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
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
My background is not typical hip-hop. I didn’t grow up in the projects. I grew up in a single family home in a middle-class suburb. That doesn’t mean I didn’t experience hardship, but to me it’s not about that, it’s about the future and where we are trying to take it.
Kid Cudi
