Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
Men who have a pierced ear are better prepared for marriage – they’ve experienced pain and bought jewelry.
I understand the pain of working-class Americans because I have experienced the pain.
It’ll never get old to hear a song that I wrote on the radio or to hear what someone experienced when they heard a song I wrote.
That’s what I love about my faith and Christianity. It’s the polar opposite of darn near everything I experienced in the wrestling business. I still love the business, and I’m thankful for everything that it’s provided, but the idea that it deals in the truth is the furthest thing from reality.
I’ve suffered quite a lot, to the point where I’ve experienced death. Years before I wasn’t fit to die, but I understand life better now. Death is nice, death is beauty.
It was the closest to purgatory that I’ve ever experienced while I’ve been living.
I belong to a nation which over the past centuries has experienced many hardships and reverses. The world reacted with silence or with mere sympathy when Polish frontiers were crossed by invading armies and the sovereign state had to succumb to brutal force.
Anyone who has experienced a certain amount of loss in their life has empathy for those who have experienced loss.
I had a wonderful fan who once sent me an alpaca hat all the way from Peru, where he’d gone to volunteer in a remote village because he was inspired by ‘Legend’ to do good. That’s probably one of the sweetest fan moments I’ve experienced.
I have experienced a tremendous amount of personal and professional growth, and I feel incredibly lucky that I’m able to make a career out of doing the things that I love.
I use color in terms of emotional quality, as a vehicle for feeling… feeling is everything I have experienced or thought.
I don’t think anyone can do any character that doesn’t have at least some ounce of themselves in it. You are who you are, and your brain is drawing on things that you’ve experienced.
The greater the feeling of inferiority that has been experienced, the more powerful is the urge to conquest and the more violent the emotional agitation.
Having my first number one single and being able to travel to places I’ve never been before has been amazing. The tour was also fantastic. There are so many things which I’ve experienced this year which I never even dreamed of.
I’ve experienced a lot for someone my age that a lot of people will be able to relate to.
I am a big fan of long drop, composting toilets – I like the cycle of using waste. When you have experienced one and seen what comes out of the bottom, it is amazing stuff. It’s the most beautiful, driest, sweet-smelling compost.
The best teaching I ever experienced was at Exeter. Yale was a distinct letdown afterward.
There was a very obnoxious phase for Axl Rose. I’m sure if I had experienced as much success as he had, I would probably be a third as obnoxious. I’d probably be obnoxious, too. But not that much.
The monastery of Christ in the Desert had its resident hermit, Brother Xavier, chosen after years of devotion and service, a monk so trusted and experienced that he qualified by Benedictine standards to be sent to the front lines in the fight against the devil.
To be a human being means to possess a feeling of inferiority which constantly presses towards its own conquest. The greater the feeling of inferiority that has been experienced, the more powerful is the urge for conquest and the more violent the emotional agitation.
I know people who have had near-death experiences or who have experienced terminal illness and come through the other side.
An experienced designer with more freedom to act might have realised that there was just too much optimism in the Ares I concept: that a shuttle SRB was simply too small as a first stage for a rocket carrying the relatively heavy Orion spacecraft.
Over the last six years, airlines have experienced severe financial pressure to leave smaller communities, making demands on the EAS program even greater.
I’ve experienced cyberbullying my entire life due to just having a last name that people knew.
Yeah, but you need an experienced radio veteran who is a liberal advocate. And there just hadn’t been any radio that did that. And so they weren’t trained – they had developed all these bad habits of being objective and balanced and stuff like that.
I am absolutely opposed to political correctness. You cannot confront hate speech until you’ve experienced it. You need to hear every side of the issue instead of just one.
I actively pursue experiences that are unlike any others that I’ve experienced and cultures that I don’t know and unfamiliar places and unfamiliar history and things like that.
I have never experienced racism in the feminist movement, so it concerned me to think that I was unable to see the subject clearly because I came from white, middle-class privilege.
I used to be quite negative about going back to Greece and making something, but there is a certain kind of freedom that I’ve experienced while I was making films in Greece that is hard to replicate elsewhere.
I’ve never experienced sexual harassment at work, but I 100% believe and support everyone that has come forward, because I’m very lucky that it has never happened to me.
I’ve experienced, in general, in New York, people cut to the chase a little more, and they’re a little bit more straightforward. In L.A. I’ve experienced more wishy-washiness. I will say, though, that the people that are actually from L.A. – like, born and raised in L.A. – are the real nice and genuine people.
When I reflect on the losses I’ve experienced, I’ve come to believe that those experiences were transformative, that they shaped who I am.
I’ve been through some dark times but I’ve experienced joy too. Now that joy can’t be suppressed.
I’ve experienced all the food and restaurants in New Orleans. I’ve been doing a bit of touristing when I have the day off, just walking in the French Quarter. To me, it’s very, very surprising how people are so friendly. But no, it’s very different from Paris.
In the United States in 2009, more than 10.2 billion trips were taken on transit trains and buses. So far, the nation has not experienced a major transit attack since Sept. 11, but the March 2010 Moscow subway bombings and earlier train attacks in London and Mumbai show that we must be prepared.
I feel like if I’ve written a song about something I haven’t experienced, I wouldn’t be able to perform it properly, and people would be able to see that. People can see right through that.
Raymond Floyd. The man knows how to control situations. He was experienced. He didn’t let me get overly excited; he kept me in check. It allowed me to free myself up, and I played really well with him.
My parents weren’t artistic, but I was always surrounded by beautiful things. And Mexico is a country which has experienced thousands of years of art and culture.
I cling to the hope that with more and more women in the workplace, we can teach younger generations to be respectful and also encourage young women to speak up when they’ve experienced abuse.
I heard it in 2008 and hear it again now – this notion that the only reason one would support Hillary Clinton is because she is a woman – or only because she is experienced and smart. She is all of those things. But I am with her because… Hillary Clinton inspires me.
What I love about the stories of the Great Migration is that this is not ancient history; this is living history. Most people of color can find someone in their own family who had experienced a migration of some kind, knowing the sense of dislocation, longing and fortitude.
Neither of us were experienced hosts on television. But the show seemd to moved in the direction of our characters, the way we approached things. It evolved around us and the things we think are interesting.
I’ve experienced being properly lost in my desires, and it’s really influenced my writing.
We need narrative; it feeds us in a particular way, and deconstructing it completely before you’ve actually experienced it, I think it leaves us unfed.
Websites are kind of useless. There’s so much great web content and design out there, but the ways in which they are being experienced are not being maximized.
Kohli is my favorite batsman. I watch his videos and try to learn from that. He is an experienced player, and it is always good to learn from a player of his caliber.
Remy Ma is from the Bronx and I’m from the Bronx. The stories in her music are similar to what I’ve experienced.
France was given up to fire and bloodshed, she experienced famine, she experienced the worst of things, she was nearly chopped up in pieces forever because of the decision… to exclude, to brand one party as guilty and annihilate them.
What we do every night is we change out the set list as much as we can to make sure that (fans can) go home and tell their friends they experienced something unique and cool.
In the South we experienced, you know, some black kids who gave us a hard time because – cause ‘you talk white.’ We didn’t talk white. We talked fairly proper. Plus, we had a Midwestern accent, so we didn’t have a Southern accent, either. So it wasn’t really talking white; it was talking different.
