Experience

One of the things in the back of my mind is that, after my sports experience, I never want to be, totally consumed by any one endeavor, other than my family life. – Julius Erving

By experience we find out a short way by a long wandering. – Roger Ascham

Experience tells you what to do confidence allows you to do it. – Stan Smith

My time at Shell was a most valuable experience because it taught me to look at the world in a long-term way. Shell takes a 20-year view on events and plans for different scenarios. It makes you see the world as a kind of large matrix. – Vince Cable

I raised five children. They all have different personalities. All of them have different issues, different levels of success. That was a learning experience for me. – T. D. Jakes
