When you take the bull by the horns...what happens is a toss-up.

William Pett Ridge Novelist

The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.

Aleister Crowley Poet

Experience is the name men give to their follies or their sorrows.

Alfred De Musset Dramatist

Experience increases our wisdom but doesn't reduce our follies.

Josh Billings Humorist

It must never be forgotten that the purpose of Alcoholics Anonymous is to sober up alcoholics. There is no religious or spiritual requirement for membership. No demands are made on anyone. An experience is offered which members may accept or reject. That is up to them.

We had the experience but missed the meaning. And approach to the meaning restores the experience in a different form.

T. S. Eliot Playwright

If you don t know where you are, a map won't help.

Watts Humphrey Software Engineer

Every experience empowers you twice: First when you enter into it with a whole heart, and again when you leave it with a whole heart.

Alan Cohen Writer

It's a very small and select slice of all the people who have ever been born. I believe we've come back during this time, those of us who are here now, specifically to experience it. And to cause a 'quickening of the spirit.'

Neale Donald Walsch Author

It must be conceded that a theory has an important advantage if its basic concepts and fundamental hypotheses are 'close to experience,' and greater confidence in such a theory is certainly justified. There is less danger of going completely astray, particularly since it takes so much less time and effort to disprove such theories by experience. Yet more and more, as the depth of our knowledge increases, we must give up this advantage in our quest for logical simplicity in the foundations of physical theory.

Albert Einstein Theoretical Physicist
