Famous quotes containing the words professional and/or experience:
“In European thought in general, as contrasted with American, vigor, life and originality have a kind of easy, professional utterance. American—on the other hand, is expressed in an eager amateurish way. A European gives a sense of scope, of survey, of consideration. An American is strained, sensational. One is artistic gold; the other is bullion.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“I had rather have a fool to make me merry than experience to make me sad—and to travel for it too!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
