"A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe,' a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."	Albert Einstein
"A man who loses his money, gains, at the least, experience, and sometimes, something better."	Benjamin "Dizzy" Disraeli
"A proverb is a short sentence based on long experience."	Miguel de Cervantes
"Acting is a question of absorbing other people's personalities and adding some of your own experience."	Paul Newman

"Age, health, and stage in life have nothing to do with serving or not serving. In each season of life there are attributes and qualities of life and experience that God values in service."	Bruce Kemper
"All our thoughts and concepts are called up by sense-experiences and have a meaning only in reference to these sense-experiences. On the other hand, however, they are products of the spontaneous activity of our minds; they are thus in no wise logical consequences of the contents of these sense-experiences. If, therefore, we wish to grasp the essence of a complex of abstract notions we must for the one part investigate the mutual relationships between the concepts and the assertions made about them; for the other, we must investigate how they are related to the experiences."	Albert Einstein
"All truly wise thoughts have been thought already thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take root in our personal experience."	Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"All truly wise thoughts have been thought thousands of times; But to make them truly ours we must think them over again honestly, Until they take root in our personal experience."	Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"All truly wise thoughts have been thoughts already thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take root in our personal experience."	Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Americans who had traveled in Europe knew the 'free' European peasants suffered considerably greater oppression and misery than did American bondsman. Modern scholarship has shown that the exploitation rate -- the percentage of the worker's production that was taken from him by his owners -- was lower among the slaves than among European peasants, that work loads were light, and that slaves actually experienced a considerable measure of personal freedom."	Forest McDonald
"Art is one of the means whereby man seeks to redeem a life which is experienced as chaotic, senseless, and largely evil."	Aldous Leonard Huxley
"Axioms in philosophy are not axioms until they are proved upon our pulses: We read fine things but never feel them to the full until we have gone the same steps as the Author."	John Keats
"Being filled with the Holy Spirit, then, is a matter of obedience to the Word of God. The filling of the Spirit that all experienced at Pentecost was a matter of a promise being fulfilled. Today, the believer is to be filled in obedience to the command of Ephesians 5:18, continuously, not merely by a single, crisis experience. The Christian life is a growth process toward maturity."	Clarence Cramer
"Bill Dickey is learning me his experience."	Lawrence Peter Berra
"By far the best proof is experience."	Francis Bacon
