"I grew up like a neglected weed – ignorant of liberty, having no experience of it." ― Harriet Tubman Topic(s): Experience More From Harriet Tubman "I had crossed the line. I was free; but there was no one to welcome me to the land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land." "I had reasoned this out in my mind, there was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other." "I would fight for my liberty so long as my strength lasted, and if the time came for me to go, the Lord would let them take me." More In Experience "One of the greatest moments in anybody’s developing experience is when he no longer tries to hide from himself but determines to get acquainted with himself as he really is."― Norman Vincent Peale "Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely."― Auguste Rodin "I would vote for the man who’s lived life, who’s done different occupations, who’s been out in the real world and struggled to make a living, struggled to raise a family, struggled with life as it exists. So I’d vote for experience, honest experience."― Oliver Stone
