Quotes:

People have asked me about encounters with wolves and what it is really like, and I have answered honestly that it is an unique experience but the sort of thing that gets less surprising each time.
View quotes by Charles Goodnight

The dictum that truth always triumphs over persecution is one of the pleasant falsehoods which men repeat after one another till they pass into commonplaces, but which all experience refutes.
View quotes by John Stuart Mill

I've started playing for England in the one-dayers and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience against the Aussies last summer in both forms and it just makes you hungry to play more
View quotes by Simon Jones

When you are in a good theatre show, it is a wonderful and very fulfilling experience, entertaining a large audience and their showing their appreciation for your efforts.
View quotes by Joel Grey

A woman's life can really be a succession of lives, each revolving around some emotionally compelling situation or challenge, and each marked off by some intense experience.
View quotes by Wallis Simpson

The parade at Trafalgar Square was an amazing experience. I stood on the stage, looking out at a sea of faces, and felt like I was performing in a pop concert. I was very, very drunk.
View quotes by Simon Jones

Experience demands that man is the only animal which devours his own kind, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor.
View quotes by Thomas Jefferson

Character cannot be developed in peace and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
View quotes by Helen Keller

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security 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 exposure.
View quotes by Helen Keller

The most important American addition to the World Experience was the simple surprising fact of America. We have helped prepare mankind for all its later surprises.
View quotes by Daniel Boorstin

I became nervous because it was new to me. I had the experience of other tournaments, but I couldn’t control my nervousness. You can’t replay history. [on losing French Open final, 2004]
View quotes by Guillermo Coria

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.
View quotes by Samuel Smiles

An adolescent is somebody who is in between things. A teenager is somebody who's kind of permanently there. And so living with them through the various teenage hopes and sorrows and joys was curiously enough a maturing experience for me.
View quotes by Andrew Greeley

Most of our history in space has been communicated in terms of action - what people do, a chronological list of events which have transpired - as opposed to the human experience of having done those things.
View quotes by Story Musgrave

The stomach is the only part of man which can be fully satisfied. The yearning of man's brain for new knowledge and experience and for more pleasant and comfortable surroundings never can be completely met. It is an appetite which cannot be appeased
View quotes by Thomas Edison

The problem was to sustain at any cost the feeling you had in the theater that you were watching a real person, yes, but an intense condensation of his experience, not simply a realistic series of episodes.
View quotes by Arthur Miller

The historical experience of socialist countries has sadly demonstrated that collectivism does not do away with alienation but rather increases it, adding to it a lack of basic necessities and economic inefficiency.
View quotes by Pope John Paul II

President Bush has built up enough experience... in the past four years, so I expect he will continue to actively contribute to world peace and stability under international co-ordination.
View quotes by Junichiro Koizumi

Joy, rather than happiness, is the goal of life, for joy is the emotion which accompanies our fulfilling our natures as human beings. It is based on the experience of one's identity as a being of worth and dignity.
View quotes by Rollo May

There are people hell-bent on the idea that we're a Christian band in disguise, and that we have some secret message. We have no spiritual affiliation with this music. It's simply about life experience.
