I like to think of my behavior in the sixties as a 'learning experience.' Then again, I like to think of anything stupid I've done as a 'learning experience.' It makes me feel less stupid. P. J. O'Rourke behaviorexperiencefeel Change image and share on social
If we are going to have a bicameral parliament, I think there should always be a reserved place for people whose background and experience are critical to the welfare of the nation. Neil Kinnock backgroundbicameralcritical Change image and share on social
The red carpet is kind of a surreal experience. There's nothing normal about it, so for me the most important thing is to maintain some normality right until the point you get out of the car. Samantha Barks carcarpetexperience Change image and share on social

You've got to experience failure to understand that you can survive it. Tina Fey billclintondie share on social
The World Cup experience is more than just the game of soccer. It's an event. And it will fly by faster than you think. It will end and you'll be saying, 'Wow, it's over already?' You have to remember to take it all in and enjoy it. Cobi Jones cupendenjoy share on social
If we could only snap the fetters of the body that bind the feet of the soul, we shall experience a great joy. Then we shall not be miserable because of the body's sufferings. We shall become free. Vinoba Bhave bindbodyexperience Change image and share on social
