Miserable Experience

Famous quotes containing the words miserable and/or experience:

    The full value of this life can only be got by fighting; the violent take it by storm. And if we have accepted everything we have missed something—war. This life of ours is a very enjoyable fight, but a very miserable truce.

    Poetry asks people to have values, form opinions, care about some other part of experience besides making money and being successful on the job.
