I don't think people ever were free of fear of death, but clinging to life and being so unprepared for it is a modern experience.
If I invest in a CEO, I need him or her to have experience in sales.
But finding a voice-let's be clear-is a political act. It defines a moment of presence, of being awake; and it involves not only self-understanding, but the ability to transmit that selfunderstanding to others. . . To experience yourself as "voiceless" is a definition of depression, subjugation, and being counted out. .
[I]n my country, when they would say a man has no sense, they say, such an one has no memory; and when I complain of the defect of mine, they do not believe me, and reprove me, as though I accused myself for a fool: not discerning the difference betwixt memory and understanding, which is to make matters still worse for me. But they do me wrong; for experience, rather, daily shows us, on the contrary, that a strong memory is commonly coupled with infirm judgment.
Your words are the greatest power you have. The words you choose and their use establish the life you experience.
The experience of each new age requires a new confession, and the world seems always waiting for its poet

Go afield with a good attitude, with respect for the wildlife you hunt and for the forest and fields in which you walk. Immerse yourself in the outdoor experience. It will cleanse your soul and make you a better person.
To the leaders of the cinema still to come, I can offer only a few words drawn from my modest experience. You must ceaselessly formulate and sharpen your critical views, both of others and of yourselves.
The movies that are really big, at least in my experience, oftentimes don't have characters that I feel as personally connected to.
Every experience is worth having.
My experience with Khonsu had taught me not be greedy about time. It was best to appreciate what you had and not yearn for more.
We are older by faith than by experience.
Hillary Clinton has experience, but it's bad experience.
It's been a great experience, it's been a great adventure to see people who were like me, who did not know that they had the ability or potential to be a winner in life. Once they discover from God's Word that God wants them to live the abundant life, that God wants them to be successful, God wants them to prosper, God wants them to be a winner then it is amazing how life is turned over on the inside that then they become the winner that God calls them to be.
