"All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience." ― Henry Miller Topic(s): Experience More From Henry Miller "In this age, which believes that there is a short cut to everything, the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most difficult way is, in the long run, the easiest." "Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything." "The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware." More In Experience "Experience teaches only the teachable."― Aldous Huxley "Normally, I love to go to the movies and when I see a character portrayed by different actors at different ages, it kind of pops a little bit for me. It brings me out of the movie experience. Now we have the technology to cure that."― Jeff Bridges "A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions."― Oliver Wendell Holmes
