Experience
  • The act of birth is the first experience of anxiety, and thus the source and prototype of the affect of anxiety.

  • In the revolt against idealism, the ambiguities of the word experience have been perceived, with the result that realists have more and more avoided the word.

  • The deepest experience of the creator is feminine, for it is experience of receiving and bearing.

  • Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.

  • Life has a certain flavor for those who have fought and risked all that the sheltered and protected can never experience.
