We went with the St. Lawrence Experience which is run by Joe Babbitt who is a close friend now. We went out there for 10 days and we had the best week of our lives and we've been going back since. We've been back three times now.

There is science logic reason there is thought verified by experience. And then there is California.

Of two pleasures if there be one which all or almost all who have experience of both give a decided preference irrespective of any feeling of moral obligation to prefer it that is the more desirable pleasure.

But it's a journey and the sad thing is you only learn from experience so as much as someone can tell you things you have to go out there and make your own mistakes in order to learn.

There is no more lively sensation than that of pain its impressions are certain and dependable they never deceive as may those of the pleasure women perpetually feign and almost never experience.

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

But if somebody dies if something happens to you there is a normal process of depression it is part of being human and some people view it as a learning experience etc.

Anybody who has gone through a life-changing experience will tell you there is a different understanding of what is real and what is important and when you are going through different moments you can reflect and go 'I have been through worse.'

The trouble with this country is that there are too many politicians who believe with a conviction based on experience that you can fool all of the people all of the time.

In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.

My own experience is use the tools that are out there. Use the digital world. But never lose sight of the need to reach out and talk to other people who don't share your view. Listen to them and see if you can find a way to compromise.

Is there anyone so wise as to learn by the experience of others?

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.

There are three methods to gaining wisdom. The first is reflection which is the highest. The second is limitation which is the easiest. The third is experience which is the bitterest.

Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves - and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.

The marvelous richness of human experience would lose something of rewarding joy if there were no limitations to overcome. The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful if there were no dark valleys to traverse.

There is nothing so easy to learn as experience and nothing so hard to apply.
