Famous quotes containing the words experience and/or country:
“... religious experience, as we have studied it, cannot be cited as unequivocally supporting the infinitist belief. The only thing that it unequivocally testifies to is that we can experience union with something larger than ourselves and in that union find our greatest peace.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“Though it is curious here,
unusually awkward to walk.
It is without grace.
There is no rhythm
in this country of dirt.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
