Marc Andreessen


I just think that the collective experience of going to see a film is something you can't recreate.

William Blake


A woman's experience is different from a man's in virtually every respect, including how she is treated by the media.

Peter Singer

They also have sanitation and safe drinking water.
Peter Singer


The things I was allowed to experience, the people I was able to call friends, teammates, mentors, coaches and opponents, the travel, all of it, are far more than anything I ever thought possible in my lifetime.

Experience does not err. Only your judgments err by expecting from her what is not in her power.
Leonardo da Vinci


Follow that will and that way which experience confirms to be your own.
Carl Jung


I think how pay gets determined is pretty broad - experience, how people look, what they bring to the job. But there's no question women are paid less. Women don't ask.
Dee Dee Myers


It has been my experience that if we make the effort to listen to people when we meet them, and work to get to know them a little, it is then easy to find something likeable in practically anyone.
Bryant H. McGill


If you've got a piece and you can feel the person who's going to direct it is really made for it, if it's really special for them, then it's going to be a better-than-usual experience.
Edward Norton

Gus Van Sant


My ultimate aim is to make euthanasia a positive experience.
Jack Kevorkian

Albert Schweitzer


The soul is everlasting, and its learning experience is lifetime after lifetime.
Shirley MacLaine


Women love working together. That's my experience anyway.
Shirley MacLaine


When a child comes in, I believe that it's a 'multipersonhood,' and it knows it, its consciousness knows it, and it has a nuclei in the center of its consciousness that is the repository of all experience and all knowledge. And when you look in the eyes of your baby and you feel this sense that they are an old soul, I believe indeed they are.
Shirley MacLaine


I always try to keep the circumstances in my life fresh. I like to change the physical environment I live in, change the people around me and try to experience things for the first time. I think that keeps one on their toes, creatively and spiritually.

W. H. Auden


You know, in 1975 I couldn't get a job in New York City because I was American. The kitchens were predominantly run by French, Swiss, German, and basically I got laughed at. I had education, I had experience, but got laughed at because I was American.
Emeril Lagasse


I remember when I took Quentin Tarantino with me to a very private screening of the documentary 'Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired,' which shows some of the legal irregularities of his case. I was involved by the film, and it was an amazing experience to see people weep at the end of it.

Marquis de Sade


We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts. It's our job every day to make every important aspect of the customer experience a little bit better.

Vin Diesel


It's always an interesting experience for a politician to be heard in silence, I have to say.
Theresa May


It's good to experience Hollywood in short bursts, I guess. Little snippets. I don't think I can handle being here all the time, it's pretty nutty.
Johnny Depp


The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.
Sigmund Freud


Acting is a question of absorbing other people's personalities and adding some of your own experience.

Emma Watson


I think I have a tendency to look at things subjectively rather than objectively when I reflect on my experience.
Ricky Williams


As an actress, it's part of your job to be able to imagine just about anything - even if it's not within your personal experience.
Rachel Weisz


I was emotionally and physically punched in the stomach. This is not a place where you go and deliver the lines and then you come back. It's kind of a life-changing experience. But it can't get better than this for any actor - this is like an opera.
Javier Bardem


Experience is what enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Earl Wilson


At every step the child should be allowed to meet the real experience of life; the thorns should never be plucked from his roses.
Ellen Key


I probably hold the distinction of being one movie star who, by all laws of logic, should never have made it. At each stage of my career, I lacked the experience.
Audrey Hepburn


I really do love Diana Ross; I grew up listening to her records. I grew up in a little town in Mexico, so while we got the music, we never got the experience of watching her.
Salma Hayek


The wonderful thing about acting is you move along with your decade. The older you get, the more interesting the parts you get to play and you bring more of your personal experience to the part.
Francesca Annis


Truly charismatic people, in my experience, don't come along very often.
Francesca Annis


In our society, daily experience teaches the individual to want and need a never-ending supply of new toys and drugs.
Christopher Lasch


Sometimes I think our problems are made worse by the kind of business we're in. Playing these road shows is a weird experience.
Loretta Lynn


I discovered early on that some performers live their life in order to act, so all their relationships are simply an experience that they can feed back into their work. Which I find vampiric.
Cate Blanchett


I'm not particularly precious about the theatrical experience any more.
Edward Norton


A lot of why I do something is just the novelty of the experience.
Edward Norton


Find what's hot, find what's just opened and then look for the worst review of the week. There is so much to learn from watching a restaurant getting absolutely panned and having a bad experience. Go and see it for yourself.
Gordon Ramsay

Herbert Read


If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.
John Heywood


I haven't been as wild with my money as somebody like me might have been. I've been very safe, very conservative with investments. I don't blow money. I don't have a ton of houses. I know things can go away. I've already had that experience.
Jim Carrey


The questions which one asks oneself begin, at least, to illuminate the world, and become one's key to the experience of others.

Muhammad Iqbal


The position that I take partly as a result of living in Asia is where you stop living according to your expectations and you become available to experience things as they are.
Martha Beck


I've always been attracted to cars, and driving is a completely measurable experience: if you qualify last on the grid, you're the slowest, and if you qualify first on the grid, you're the fastest. So no one can say you're slow if you're fast and no one can say you're fast if you're slow.
Eric Bana


I guess my experience with some stuff is kind of abstract.
Joaquin Phoenix


I have this horrible sense of humor where I think discomfort is funny - partly because I experience discomfort a lot, and it's a way of laughing at it and getting a release.
Joaquin Phoenix


For me, I'd rather have an intense experience than not.
Joaquin Phoenix


Yes, all my songs come from personal experience and relationships.
Rick Springfield

Scott Weiland


Fatigue is what we experience, but it is what a match is to an atomic bomb.
Laura Hillenbrand


Intuition is the very force or activity of the soul in its experience through whatever has been the experience of the soul itself.
Henry Reed


An enormous part of our mature experience cannot not be expressed in words.
Alfred North Whitehead


Some of us are interested in directors, but really the vast majority of us are interested in actors. You experience the films through the actors, so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.
Danny Boyle


I don't want people to sit there and objectively watch the film. I want them to experience it as something that's under their skin, so you try to make the films really tactile.
Danny Boyle


You experience the films through the actors, so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.
Danny Boyle


I wouldn't go up on a stage now if you paid a thousand dollars for one minute of acting. It's a nasty experience. You're up there all by yourself. You're so damn exposed.
Elia Kazan


I have such happy memories of performing in a choir and I don't think I'd have got where I am today without all that experience. So my advice to young singers is to either join your school or church's choir or find one in your local area. Choral music at any level teaches you so much about musicianship and blending your voice.
Katherine Jenkins


Experience is like a comb that life gives you when you are bald.
Navjot Singh Sidhu


Never become so much of an expert that you stop gaining expertise. View life as a continuous learning experience.
Denis Waitley


The only faith that wears well and holds its color in all weathers is that which is woven of conviction and set with the sharp mordant of experience.
James Russell Lowell


If your faith is opposed to experience, to human learning and investigation, it is not worth the breath used in giving it expression.
E. W. Howe


It's always good to get a smaller tournament under your belt so that by the time you get to the Slams, you have a lot of experience.
Serena Williams


Experience has taught me how important it is to just keep going, focusing on running fast and relaxed. Eventually it passes and the flow returns. It's part of racing.
Frank Shorter


Throughout my whole life, as a performer, I've never played with a band. I've always played alone, so I was never required to stay in rhythm or anything. So it was a real different experience for me to start playing with a band. There were so many basic things for me to learn.
Steve Martin


When I was young, I was just about hard work. But as I got older, I did experience anxiety, doubt, judgment, and it's so easy to lose yourself for a second.
Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez


No 27-year-old has the experience to run a company that does a quarter of a billion dollars a year in sales.
Calvin Klein


You can live your whole life in your brain and not experience what's around you. You go crazy that way.
Fiona Apple


Though 'Fire and Rain' is very personal, for other people it resonates as a sort of commonly held experience... And that's what happens with me. I write things for personal reasons, and then in some cases it... can be a shared experience.
James Taylor


I know there are people who don't like their audience or like the experience of being recognized or celebrated, but my audience has been very good - they don't bother me and when they do contact me it's usually on the nicest possible terms.
James Taylor


Performing is a profound experience, at least for me. It's not as if I sit down and play 'Fire and Rain' by myself, just to hear it again. But to offer it up... the energy that it somehow summons live takes me right back, and I do get a reconnection to the emotions.
James Taylor


Performing is a profound experience, at least for me.
James Taylor


I have relationships with people I'm working with, based on our combined interest. It doesn't make the relationship any less sincere, but it does give it a focus that may not last beyond the experience.
Harrison Ford


A great deal has been written in recent years about the purported lack of motivation in the children of the Negro ghettos. Little in my experience supports this, yet the phrase has been repeated endlessly, and the blame in almost all cases is placed somewhere outside the classroom.
Jonathan Kozol


I'm very accepting with my age. It's like notches on your belt: experience, wisdom, and a different kind of beauty. There comes a day when you've become comfortable in your skin.
Zoe Saldana


I didn't go to high school, so I don't have a high school experience. I was home-schooled during high school.
Josh Hutcherson


Poets are the only people to whom love is not only a crucial, but an indispensable experience, which entitles them to mistake it for a universal one.
Hannah Arendt


You have to see a building to comprehend it. Photographs cannot convey the experience, nor film.
Arthur Erickson


However it is debased or misinterpreted, love is a redemptive feature. To focus on one individual so that their desires become superior to yours is a very cleansing experience.
Jeanette Winterson


Through the years of experience I have found that air offers less resistance than dirt.
Jack Nicklaus


You have to trust your kids. They have to experience life, and you just hope you've provided them a foundation for what's right and what isn't.
Jack Nicklaus


America is an idea. And it's the solemn responsibility of each 'temporary' president to protect and nurture that noblest of all ideas - with integrity. This man, Mitt Romney, has shown - not through his experience, but through his actions and words - that he is unqualified to carry out that responsibility.
Jennifer Granholm


Literature transmits incontrovertible condensed experience... from generation to generation. In this way literature becomes the living memory of a nation.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn


There are some hurts that we experience that can be forgiven but we won't forget them.
Joyce Meyer


Can advertising foist an inferior product on the consumer? Bitter experience has taught me that it cannot. On those rare occasions when I have advertised products which consumer tests have found inferior to other products in the same field, the results have been disastrous.
David Ogilvy


I had a heartbreaking experience when I was 9. I always wanted to be a guard. The most wonderful girl in the world was a guard. When I got polio and then went back to school, they made me a guard. A teacher took away my guard button.
Francis Ford Coppola


I eventually became proud of my strikeouts, because each one represented another learning experience.
Willie Stargell


I felt alienated by the experience and decided to stay away from corporate employment.
Lee Child


It would be my guess that Madonna is not a very happy woman. From my own experience, having gone through persona changes like that, that kind of clawing need to be the center of attention is not a pleasant place to be.
David Bowie


I prefer to think of the audience as a single living organism with which I am sharing a singular, never-to-be-repeated experience.
Martha Plimpton


The monsters of our childhood do not fade away, neither are they ever wholly monstrous. But neither, in my experience, do we ever reach a plane of detachment regarding our parents, however wise and old we may become. To pretend otherwise is to cheat.
John le Carre


A spy, like a writer, lives outside the mainstream population. He steals his experience through bribes and reconstructs it.
John le Carre


I was quite able at the insignificant work I did in MI6, but absolutely dysfunctional in my domestic life. I had no experience of fatherhood. I had no example of marital bliss or the family unit.
John le Carre


Whenever something happens that makes me laugh or if I remember something in the middle of the night that I want to share, I jot the experience down.
Tori Spelling


My kids will grow up in a house knowing that it's perfectly normal for two men to be in love, it's perfectly normal for two women to be in love. My kids will grow up knowing it's all about love. It doesn't matter who you're with and everyone should have that experience.
Tori Spelling


Acting can be a narrow and isolated experience, because you only examine your particular part.
Damian Lewis


Directing is a more pragmatic experience, where you have to deal with the restrictions of time and money that force you to make certain decisions you don't have to make when you're writing.
Charlie Kaufman


When I'm writing, I'm trying to immerse myself in the chaos of an emotional experience, rather than separate myself from it and look back at it from a distance with clarity and tell it as a story. Because that's how life is lived, you know?
Charlie Kaufman


I think generally I'm kind of interested in subjective experience, what goes on inside someone's head, that being all they really know of the world.
Charlie Kaufman


I think you just assume that your memory is just sort of a video playback of your experience, but it's nothing like that at all. It's a complete refabrication of an event and a lot of it is made up, because you're filling in spaces.
Charlie Kaufman


Values are principles and ideas that bring meaning to the seemingly mundane experience of life. A meaningful life that ultimately brings happiness and pride requires you to respond to temptations as well as challenges with honor, dignity, and courage.
Laura Schlessinger


There's no experience like on-the-job training.
Hank Azaria


I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream.
Vincent Van Gogh


A leader who confines his role to his people's experience dooms himself to stagnation; a leader who outstrips his people's experience runs the risk of not being understood.
Henry A. Kissinger


The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art - and, by analogy, our own experience - more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.
Susan Sontag


The experience of being in space didn't change my perspective of myself or of the planet or of life. I had no spiritual experience.
Sally Ride


You can learn more from the lows than the highs. The highs are great but the lows make you really look at things in a different way and want to improve. Every player will have both in their careers and I have, but what you get is that experience which is so important to perform at your best.
Wayne Rooney


I feel that between my experience and my mother's, breast cancer is a little bit like someone who lives next door. I know what that person looks like and what their daily habits are.
Cynthia Nixon


My parents had an experience of life that is as opposite to mine as you can imagine.
Jane Pauley


No matter how close to personal experience a story might be, inevitably you are going to get to a part that isn't yours and, actually, whether it happened or not becomes irrelevant. It is all about choosing the right words.
Roddy Doyle


I started thinking about joy. Everything in our society is so purposeful. Let's bring joy back to the experience.
Sara Blakely


I wouldn't say I'm a very original thinker, but if I have a good experience with something, I'll want to take it further or adapt it in some way.
Gwyneth Paltrow


Anyone who teaches knows that you don't really experience a text until you've taught it, in loving detail, with an intelligent and responsive class.
Joyce Carol Oates


Yes, I've listened to just a few audiobooks - but hope to listen to more. I've wanted to investigate how my own books sound in this format and find the experience of listening, and not reading, quite fascinating.
Joyce Carol Oates


I enjoy writing but I much prefer the experience of having written.
Fareed Zakaria


I know from my own experience and from other people in the business that when you come from a place where nobody knew who you were and then there is this sudden shift to where everybody now knows who you are, there's an adjustment that you have to make.
Kristen Wiig


My worst hair experience was when I was trying to relax my hair and my grandmother did it. It went all straight and I looked like a black Bee Gee.
Jamie Foxx


Actually, music gave me the support when I needed it. I would never have gone to college unless I'd gotten a piano scholarship. And now I'm so glad I got to learn to play the cello, which is a different experience, you're flexing a different muscle, but it's beautiful because it is music.
Jamie Foxx


These are tough times and under this Tory-led government many people in Manchester are suffering and getting left behind. If elected I will use all my energy, skills, experience and knowledge to stand up for our communities and get things done for the better.
Lucy Powell


My Marine experience helped shape who I am now personally and professionally, and I am grateful for that on an almost daily basis.
Jim Lehrer


To most men experience is like the stern lights of a ship, which illuminate only the track it has passed.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge


Yet higher religion, which is only a search for a larger life, is essentially experience and recognized the necessity of experience as its foundation long before science learnt to do so.
Muhammad Iqbal


It may, however, be said that the level of experience to which concepts are inapplicable cannot yield any knowledge of a universal character, for concepts alone are capable of being socialized.
Muhammad Iqbal


The standpoint of the man who relies on religious experience for capturing Reality must always remain individual and incommunicable.
Muhammad Iqbal


Being an actor means asking people to look at you. I guess I accept that. But it's a profession in which the job is to show another world and other people. You may access it through bits of yourself, and your imagination and experience, but actually, in the end, you're not playing yourself.
Ralph Fiennes


I had great faith in Irish actors, that they'd be hip to the whole theatre thing, and they are. I had no illusions of coming over here as some kind of big shot. It's been a learning experience for me too.
Christopher Meloni


I had no expectations about fatherhood, really, but it's definitely a journey I'm glad to be taking. Number one, it's a great learning experience. When my mother told me it's a 24/7 job, she wasn't kidding.
Christopher Meloni


A great many people experience the movement from one century to the next, but a minuscule number of people experience the movement from one millennium to the next.
Neale Donald Walsch


When I go to my live shows it's often a multigenerational audience, a family bonding experience.
Al Yankovic


When I was 27 years old, I organized legal aid clinics to help low-income seniors. It was a life-altering experience.
Ron Wyden


But constant experience shows us that every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go.
Charles de Secondat


There can be no greater error than to expect, or calculate, upon real favors from nation to nation. It is an illusion which experience must cure, which a just pride ought to discard.
George Washington


I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.
Patrick Henry


Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions.
Dag Hammarskjold


From my experience, I think that every actor has to make sure that they're in charge of their own career somehow or other.
Alan Rickman


The most experience I had in the criminology field is playing a thug as an actor. That was my first paid job. The police academy at the college was paying people to reenact the calls that potential cops would get. So I got to play thugs and people who were unruly.
Jeremy Renner


I learn from experience.
Alan Dershowitz


Enough of this occupation, terror and abuse. We are not in need of your help. We are able to combat and defeat terrorism, and achieve unity. We are not in need of your bases, your experience and etc.
Muqtada al Sadr
