Famous quotes containing the word experience:
“One year, I’d completely lost my bearings trying to follow potty training instruction from a psychiatric expert. I was stuck on step on, which stated without an atom of irony: “Before you begin, remove all stubbornness from the child.” . . . I knew it only could have been written by someone whose suit coat was still spotless at the end of the day, not someone who had any hands-on experience with an actual two-year-old.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“Is it not rather what we expect in men, that they should have numerous strands of experience lying side by side and never compare them with each other?”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Awareness requires a rupture with the world we take for granted; then old categories of experience are called into question and revised.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
