Conscious Experience

Famous quotes containing the words conscious and/or experience:

    “We attack not only to hurt someone, to defeat him, but perhaps also simply to become conscious of our own strength.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Experience is not a matter of having actually swum the Hellespont, or danced with the dervishes, or slept in a doss- house. It is a matter of sensibility and intuition, of seeing and hearing the significant things, of paying attention at the right moments, of understanding and co-ordinating. Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
