I like directors who have worked as actors. They know the experience.
Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.
We should not look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors, and for the purpose of profiting by dearly bought experience.
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.
Experience teaches us that it is much easier to prevent an enemy from posting themselves than it is to dislodge them after they have got possession.
Experience has taught me that any kind of political grouping is oppressive. It's the blind mass that crushes the individual.
We cannot control what emotions or circumstances we will experience next, but we can choose how we will respond to them.
Each solstice is a domain of experience unto itself. At the Summer Solstice, all is green and growing, potential coming into being, the miracle of manifestation painted large on the canvas of awareness. At the Winter Solstice, the wind is cold, trees...
The pain of powerlessness is excruciating. It is the most painful experience in the earth school, and everyone shares it.
I grew up not having very many girl friends. Girls tend to be competitive. I actually went to the school 'Mean Girls' was written about, so you can only imagine what my high school experience was like!
There's no experience like on-the-job training.
Mum wasn't at all religious, but she thought that going to the theatre was as important a ceremonial, communal experience that a person could have.
All experience is an arch, to build upon.
Everyone will experience the consequences of his own acts. If his act are right, he'll get good consequences; if they're not, he'll suffer for it.
Learn to reverence night and to put away the vulgar fear of it, for, with the banishment of night from the experience of man, there vanishes as well a religious emotion, a poetic mood, which gives depth to the adventure of humanity.
The head learns new things, but the heart forever practices old experiences.
See any detour as an opportunity to experience new things.
Theories are always very thin and insubstantial, experience only is tangible.
Theatre should be a taxing experience: the greatest achievement of a writer is to produce a character who creates anxiety.
Acting is experience with something sweet behind it.
No characters in 'Stay Close,' including the leads, are black and white. I want them to be grey. I think that makes for a much more interesting reading experience, something that will stay with you a little bit longer.
