Famous quotes containing the word experience:
“My experience of ships is that on them one makes an interesting discovery about the world. One finds one can do without it completely.”
—Malcolm Bradbury (b. 1932)
“Experience is not a matter of having actually swum the Hellespont, or danced with the dervishes, or slept in a doss-house. It is a matter of sensibility and intuition, of seeing and hearing the significant things, of paying attention at the right moments, of understanding and co-ordinating. Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
