Conscious Experience

Famous quotes containing the words conscious and/or experience:

“I want you to consider this distinction as you go forward in life. Being male is not enough; being a man is a right to be earned and an honor to be cherished. I cannot tell you how to earn that right or deserve that honor. . . but I can tell you that the formation of your manhood must be a conscious act governed by the highest vision of the man you want to be.”
—Kent Nerburn (20th century)

“Undermining experience, embellishing experience, rearranging and enlarging experience into a species of mythology.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
