And actually about three weeks ago Micky Peter and I were in Vegas at the MGM Grand. And we did about 12 shows in seven days. It was quite an experience.

It is brilliant going to the theatre and being forced to sit and listen and think about life. It can be almost a near-religious experience.

Music and language are a vital element. We as actors and directors offer it to people who want to experience it. Sometimes the actual meaning is less important than the words themselves.

My feeling about work is it's much more about the experience of doing it than the end product. Sometimes things that are really great and make lots of money are miserable to make and vice versa.

When you grow up in a family of languages you develop a kind of casual fluency so that languages though differently colored all seem transparent to experience.

We are creating a unique experience. It's starts with how you see the building from a distance.

I don't believe in the so-called Olympic spirit. I speak from personal experience. When China hosted the Games it failed to include the people. The event was constructed without regard for their joy.

I've never had issues with popularity. I was always a popular guy... I've always had friends and loved ones and everything so it wasn't like 'Oh man I gotta fill some void that was left by high school.' I had a great high-school experience.

I loved making Pure Country. It was a great learning experience for me seeing another part of the entertainment industry.

The course of the flight up and down was exceedingly erratic partly due to the irregularity of the air and partly to lack of experience in handling this machine. The control of the front rudder was difficult on account of its being balanced too near the center.

Also I knew that the impact of Motorcycle Diaries was going to be so resonant for all of us who went through the experience of making it that I didn't want to do anything that could reflect it.

Succeeding is not really a life experience that does that much good. Failing is a much more sobering and enlightening experience.

My advice would be to write what is most personal and specific to your experience or your life. And your voice will emerge and because of its specificity it will be universal.

Your own experience keeps taking you towards something. My book adds the hope that it's a better something.

So if I have two pieces of cake do I have twice as good an experience as the first piece of cake? One of the things I've found in life is that the first piece of cake is the best.

Dramatic experience is not logical it may be subdued to the kind of coherence that we indicate when we speak in criticism of form.

I've had a lot of experience in independent film and about how to choose. You've got to be very discerning about where you put your five bucks and where you cut and what you don't cut.

Being in love is the only transcendent experience.

You ask any moviemaker what their favorite movie experience was and they'll say it was one of the first ones where everyone had to pitch in and do everything together and you had to struggle.

You're creating an intimacy that everybody feels that it's their experience not yours. I'll never introduce a song and say now this song is about 'my' broken heart.

The experience is fundamentally different for buying from local businesses than it is for buying consumer goods.

The plain man is familiar with blindness and deafness and knows from his everyday experience that the look of things is influenced by his senses but it never occurs to him to regard the whole world as the creation of his senses.

I had decided I wanted to write about food and I knew the only way to do that is to speak with authority which meant learning the language and knowing what that experience is like.

I feel like if I won an award and I was giving my speech and the music started that's all I'd remember the humiliation I felt when the music started. It would mar the entire experience for me.
