It's a very small and select slice of all the people who have ever been born. I believe we've come back during this time those of us who are here now specifically to experience it. And to cause a 'quickening of the spirit.'

It's always an interesting experience for a politician to be heard in silence I have to say.

But beginners to the World Economics Forum have to understand there is no single Davos experience and there is no single Davos community either. There are numerous tribes who interact only at a minimal level.

When I'm home on a break I lock myself in my room and play guitar. After two or three hours I start getting into this total meditation. It's a feeling few people experience and that's usually when I come up with weird stuff. It just flows. I can't force myself. I don't sit down and say I've got to practice.

Bottom up thinkers try to start from experience and move from experience to understanding. They don't start with certain general principles they think beforehand are likely to be true they just hope to find out what reality is like.

I'm a very passionate believer in the unity of knowledge. There is one world of reality - one world of our experience that we're seeking to describe.

The spectacles of experience through them you will see clearly a second time.

Games have grown and developed from this limited in-the-box experience to something that's everywhere now. Interactive content is all around us networked ready. This is something I've been hoping for throughout my career.

I don't think as a creator that I could create an experience that truly feels interactive if you don't have something to hold in your hand if you don't have something like force feedback that you can feel from the controller.

I think I can make an entirely new game experience and if I can't do it some other game designer will.

I always considered myself as a character actor. I always try to be versatile to show different sides of human experience.

I left Jamaica for a while because as an artist I need to experience different things see the world have different energies. Living in one place is not good for me.

I have three goddaughters - I'm not sure why they trust me because I have no experience with children - but I try.

I think it's easy for people to assume that fame is equal to glory but it can be a very isolating experience.

You experience the films through the actors so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.

I don't want people to sit there and objectively watch the film. I want them to experience it as something that's under their skin so you try to make the films really tactile.

Some of us are interested in directors but really the vast majority of us are interested in actors. You experience the films through the actors so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.

Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself. You bring to a novel anything you read all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms.

Every day is a new experience and I take it as it comes.

I absolutely believe in the power of tithing and giving back. My own experience about all the blessings I've had in my life is that the more I give away the more that comes back. That is the way life works and that is the way energy works.

America is an idea. And it's the solemn responsibility of each 'temporary' president to protect and nurture that noblest of all ideas - with integrity. This man Mitt Romney has shown - not through his experience but through his actions and words - that he is unqualified to carry out that responsibility.

What is truth? Truth doesn't really exist. Who is going to judge whether my experience of an incident is more valid than yours? No one can be trusted to be the judge of that.

To the artist is sometimes granted a sudden transient insight which serves in this matter for experience. A flash and where previously the brain held a dead fact the soul grasps a living truth! At moments we are all artists.

My own experience is that a certain kind of genius among students is best brought out in bed.
