“Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn.”
Quote by -C.S. Lewis

Quote by -Audrey Hepburn

Quote by -Nick Hornby
We're all human beings. Experience is experience, let's just be honest. Let's not try and dissect suffering into a race, or whatever you want to call it. We're all human beings, one way or another. All races have gone through times that are challenging; that's part of being a human.
Quote by -Idris Elba

My experience of working on this show, even though there is so much about sex and sexuality, and we find out a lot of facts and statistics that are very interesting, in their own right, I found that I started talking about relationships more, and the emotions, the difficulties and the challenges. So, I became far more open about that, which I think is probably an indication with the show itself.
Quote by -Michael Sheen
Don't waste time bathing in the negative experience. Spin your energy and focus your attention on moving on. Take the lesson from the hardship, and use it in the future.
Quote by -Les Brown
"If experience has established any one thing in this world, it has established this: that it is well for any great class and description of men in society to be able to say for itself what it wants, and not to have other classes, the so-called educated and intelligent classes, acting for it as its proctors, and supposed to understand its wants and to provide for them. A class of men may often itself not either fully understand its wants, or adequately express them; but it has a nearer interest and a more sure diligence in the matter than any of its proctors, and therefore a better chance of success."
Quote by -Matthew Arnold
"You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment. Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever."
Quote by -Wayne Dyer

Quote by -Nick Saban

Quote by -Brigitte Bardot
"'50/50' is a comedy. I shouldn't say it's a buddy comedy because it's not farcical, and it's based on a true story, but it's viewing that experience through a very truthful lens of humour."
Quote by -Bryce Dallas
"Do I wish I had never endured postpartum depression? Absolutely. But to deny the experience is to deny who I am."
Quote by -Bryce Dallas
"You take all of the experience and judgment of men over 50 out of the world and there wouldn't be enough left to run it."
Quote by -Henry Ford
"For just experience tells, in every soil, That those who think must govern those who toil"
