Amy Grant quote: "The backdrop of half the experiences of life includes music."
The backdrop of half the experiences of life includes music. Amy Grant
Unfailing faith is fortified through prayer. Your heartfelt pleadings are important to Him. Think of the intense and impassioned prayers of the Prophet Joseph Smith during his dreadful days of incarceration in Liberty Jail. The Lord responded by changing the Prophet’s perspective. He said, ‘Know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good. Russell M. Nelson
He was pleased that she should see death in his face at once. His mother, at the age of sixty, was going to be introduced to reality and he supposed that if the experience didn't kill her, it would assist her in the process of growing up. He stepped down and greeted her. Flannery O'Connor
Dear Friends: As one who has experimented extensively with life in the home and community, using real people in true-life situations, I doubt that any playthings could prepare a child for one millionth of what is going to hit him in the teeth, ready or not. Kurt Vonnegut
Laura Schlessinger quote: "Just hanging around the house is deadly--get out and..."
Just hanging around the house is deadly--get out and experience the world together; do things you've never done before! Laura Schlessinger
Plutarch taught me high thoughts; he elevated me above the wretched sphere of my own reflections, to admire and love the heroes of past ages. Many things I read surpassed my understanding and experience. I had a very confused knowledge of kingdoms, wide extents of country, mighty rivers, and boundless seas. This book developed new and mightier scenes of action. I read of men concerned in public affairs, governing or massacring their species. I felt the greatest ardour for virtue rise within... Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face….You must do the thing you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
James Patterson quote: "When its true, when it's right, love can give you the kind of..."
When its true, when it's right, love can give you the kind of joy that you can't get from any other experience. James Patterson
Stories are the creative conversion of life itself into a more powerful, clearer, more meaningful experience. They are the currency of human contact. Anthony de Mello
When I listen to a symphony I love, I don't get from it what the composer got. His 'Yes' was different from mine. He could have no concern for mine and no exact conception of it. That answer is too personal to each man. But in giving himself what he wanted, he gave me a great experience. Ayn Rand
As I travel through life, I gather experiences that lie imprinted on the deepest strata of memory, and there they ferment, are transformed, and sometimes rise to the surface and sprout like strange plants from other worlds. What is the fertile humus of the subconscious composed of? Why are certain images converted into recurrent themes in nightmares or writing? Isabel Allende
Stephen King quote: "A woman in love, is what. In my experience, they got their own..."
A woman in love, is what. In my experience, they got their own laws. Stephen King
In mapping out the transpersonal realm, I found it useful to think in terms of the following three experiential regions: (1) an expansion or extension of consciousness within the everyday concept of time and space; (2) an expansion or extension of consciousness beyond the everyday concept of time and space; and (3) "psychoid" experiences. Stanislav Grof
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "Truly great men must, I think, experience great sorrow on the..."
Truly great men must, I think, experience great sorrow on the earth. Fyodor Dostoevsky
But to continue the story of my professional experiences. I made one pound ten and six by my first review; and I bought a Persian cat with the proceeds. Then I grew ambitious. A Persian cat is all very well, I said; but a Persian cat is not enough. I must have a motor car. And it was thus that I became a novelist--for it is a very strange thing that people will give you a motor car if you will tell them a story. It is a still stranger thing that there is nothing so delightful in the world as... Virginia Woolf
