Experiences

Famous quotes containing the word experiences:

    Early education can only promise to help make the third and fourth and fifth years of life good ones. It cannot insure without fail that any tomorrow will be successful. Nothing “fixes” a child for life, no matter what happens next. But exciting, pleasing early experiences are seldom sloughed off. They go with the child, on into first grade, on into the child’s long life ahead.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    In the progress of politics, as in the common occurrences of life, we are not only apt to forget the ground we have travelled over, but frequently neglect to gather up experiences as we go.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)

    Horrible experiences lead us to wonder whether the person who experiences them might not be something horrible.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
