Famous quotes containing the word experience:
“My experience has been that work is almost the best way to pull oneself out of the depths.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“UG [universal grammar] may be regarded as a characterization of the genetically determined language faculty. One may think of this faculty as a ‘language acquisition device,’ an innate component of the human mind that yields a particular language through interaction with present experience, a device that converts experience into a system of knowledge attained: knowledge of one or another language.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
“You learn from a conglomeration of the incredible past—whatever experience gotten in any way whatsoever.”
—Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
