We’re talking about people who’ve already got 3-4, if not 5-6 years’ experience or more, and it’s about trying to help professionals develop, using us as a resource for that development. – Siobhan Davies
We don’t experience our lives as plots. If I asked you to tell me what your last week was like, you’re not really gonna give me plot. You’re gonna give me sort of linked narrative. And I wanted to see how do we bring that into fiction without losing the reader. – Teju Cole
Every secret of a writer’s soul, every experience of his life, every quality of his mind is written large in his works. – Virginia Woolf
The SP-i600 by Samsung with Windows Mobile software provides a great mobile phone experience that allows mobile professionals to be more productive and effectively manage their busy lives with seamless access to their data and the Internet when they are away from the office. – Suzan DelBene
I hate going into the audition room. I find it the most nerve-wracking, inhumane experience, and I think it’s such an inhospitable environment to give an honest account of the character and, I guess, your ability. – Will Poulter
When a crime is committed, only the victim and the victim’s close circle experience the event as pain, terror, death. To people hearing or reading about it, crime is a metaphor, a symbol of the ancient battles fought every day: evil versus good, chaos versus order. – S. J. Rozan
Cro Cop is one of the best in the world and such a great guy. It was awesome to train with him. There’s nothing better than working with him, and it was a great experience. – Stipe Miocic
I look at the human life like an experiment. Every new moment, every new experience, tragic or otherwise, is an opportunity to gain a more accurate perspective and helps lead me to clarity. – Steve Gleason
Historical experience shows that a crisis causes either a recovery or catastrophic consequences. – Sergei Lavrov
The experience of a film is immersive, and music is supposed to underline and help that experience. – Thomas Newman
The first day, week and month of an employee’s experience carries a lasting impression. – Scott Weiss
I started thinking about joy. Everything in our society is so purposeful. Let’s bring joy back to the experience. – Sara Blakely
What I’ve realised is that when I walk into a club, I don’t feel good, I feel uncomfortable. I wonder what to do, I look for my drink… it’s not necessarily an enjoyable experience, so why would I put myself through that? – Shiloh Fernandez
Other families who are poor do what they can to get out of it. My mother did not. She did not utilise her resources. She had a degree. There was something she could have done, but she actively, purposely refused that so we could have this absolutely authentic experience of the worst of capitalism: ‘See? Look how bad capitalism is.’ – Said Sayrafiezadeh
Television and film are such streamlined story mediums. You can’t really meander about, whereas a novel is an interior experience. – Steven Bochco
I have been blessed in many ways, and one of those is to have been born in Africa, for me a great treasure house of stories. I have been researching it since my infancy; reading about it, talking to men and women who have spent their lives in this land, living it as I have and loving it as I do. I write almost entirely from my own experience. – Wilbur Smith
We can see every square metre of the planet on Google Earth. But there is no substitute for that sensory experience of going out into the world and discovering things for yourself. – Tim Cope
I knew a lot about product design before coming to Apple, but I didn’t understand a lot about consumer experience design, which is really Apple’s forte. – Tony Fadell
Our job as writers and thinkers in the time is how to bring about the occasions that let people have that first-person experience – or the metaphoric experience that allows them to see human continuity as opposed to total threat, total willingness to do violence. – Stanley Crouch
I actually think the whole concept of retirement is a bit stupid, so yes, I do want to do something else. There is this strange thing that just because chronologically on a Friday night you have reached a certain age… with all that experience, how can it be that on a Monday morning, you are useless? – Stuart Rose
It’s amazing how much of a bodily experience being scared is. It doesn’t take very long of hyperventilating to feel like you’re going to pass out. It’s one of those things where being scared is more of a physiological response that you can pretty easily manipulate. So in those types of scenes, it just takes a lot of energy. – Willa Fitzgerald
The biggest barrier to starting a company isn’t ideas, funding or experience. It’s excuses. – Sarah Lacy
What is the price of experience? Do men buy it for a song? Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children. – William Blake
It is convenient to distinguish the two kinds of experience which have thus been described, the experienc-ing and the experienc-ed, by technical words. – Samuel Alexander
Because of my unique experience as my mom’s child, the beginning of my journey was more about me trying to figure out who I was on my own. My mom is one of the greatest moms and so supportive of all my siblings and of all of us being who we are, and not who she wanted us to be. – Tracee Ellis Ross
