Experience is not what happens to a man. It is what a man does with what happens to him. ~Aldous Leonard Huxley
We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it – and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove-lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove-lid again – and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore. ~Mark Twain
Who then can so softly bind up the wound of another as he who has felt the same wound himself. ~Thomas Jefferson
To do something, however small, to make others happier and better, is the highest ambition, the most elevating hope, which can inspire a human being ~ John Lubbock
Experience is what causes a person to make new mistakes instead of old ones. ~Author Unknown
