Experience had taught me that innocence seldom utters outraged shrikes. Guilt does.

That is the tone of innocence. Whittaker Chambers

Experience has taught me that those who give their time to the absorbing claims of what is called society, not having leisure to keep up a large acquaintance with the organs of opinion, remain much more ignorant of the general state either of the public mind, or of the active and instructed part of it, than a recluse who reads the newspapers need be. John Stuart Mill
Aldous Huxley quote: "Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does..."
Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him. Aldous Huxley

Experience teaches that for most people there is a limit beyond which their constitution cannot comply with the demands of civilization. All who wish to reach a higher standard than their constitution will allow, fall victims to neurosis. It would have been better for them if they could have remained less "perfect". Sigmund Freud
Experiment! Meet new people. That’s better than any college education . . . By adventuring; about, you become accustomed to the unexpected. The unexpected then becomes what it really is . . . the inevitable. Amelia Earhart
