“There is an acute difference between people who are captured by experience and those who are liberated by it. Among the captives experience is used by the venal brain to get something that experience, itself, can not provide. They live for experience and it bounds them on all sides until they see, too late, what vanity they held onto.”

“Experience as a component of a man’s ability to communicate, in fact, his desire to communicate is a good base. From this base experience can be a magic elixir that frees the self from vanity among other dreaded objects of self.”

“It matters too whether experience is cheap or difficult during the period you live in. For instance, flying from here to Los Angeles is cheap and easy now but at some point, as the Spanish made their way up the coast for instance, each inch of land was very difficult to come by. Never forget the context. Ha. Never forget the context.”
