Experiments Quotes
-
It is a fact of history that those who seek to withdraw from its great experiments usually end up being overwhelmed by them.
Barbara Mary Ward, Baroness Jackson of Lodsworth
-
Cancer is like another form of life. It's closely related to healthy life. A healthy body is one form of life. Cancer is in a way nature's experiment with life.
Paul Davies
-
Experiments with the "as if" of fiction are often more lively in poetry and criticism and other modes of writing than in weak short stories or novels.
Ben Lerner
-
From a writing standpoint, maybe television is a little more satisfying because it's not all hinging on one thing. You can experiment, week to week, and you can be a little narrower in your scope one week, and then be a little broader the next week. But with film, everything can look the way you want it to look. You can really sculpt the final product. So from a directorial standpoint, film is more satisfying. But, they're both forms of media that I'd like to keep involvement in.
Seth MacFarlane
-
The value of experimentation is not the trying. It's the trying again after the experiment fails.
Simon Sinek
-
Observation, reason, and experiment make up what we call the scientific method.
Richard Feynman
-
As I "won," I didn't feel the fruits of that. I felt the fruits when I served others, when I gave myself away. . . . I've always seen my life as an experiment. I just want to go to what works. As I felt the charity aspect in my life, the giving aspect, I felt a power and I've walked more into that.
Tom Shadyac
-
What is the fundamental hypothesis of science, the fundamental philosophy? We stated it in the first chapter: the sole test of the validity of any idea is experiment. ... If we are told that the same experiment will always produce the same result, that is all very well, but if when we try it, it does not, then it does not. We just have to take what we see, and then formulate all the rest of our ideas in terms of our actual experience.
Richard Feynman
-
I came on the old and best ways of writing through ignorance and experiment and was startled when truths leaped out of brushes like quail before gunshot.
Ray Bradbury
-
If you're doing an experiment, you should report everything that you think might make it invalid - not only what you think is right about it; other causes that could possibly explain your results; and things you thought of that you've eliminated by some other experiment, and how they worked -to make sure the other fellow can tell they have been eliminated.
Richard Feynman
-
The test of all knowledge is experiment.
Richard Feynman
-
How can you go out on a limb if you do not know your own tree? No art ever came out of not risking your neck. And risk--experiment--is a considerable part of the joy of doing.
Eudora Welty
-
Products a start-up builds are really experiments…Learning about how to build a sustainable business is the outcome of those experiments which follow a three-step process: Build, measure, learn. A startup is … an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty.
Eric Ries
-
The fundamental principle of science, the definition almost, is this: the
sole test of the validity of any idea is experiment.
Richard Feynman
-
There are theoretical physicists who imagine, deduce, and guess at new laws, but do not experiment; and then there are experimental physicists who experiment, imagine, deduce, and guess.
Richard Feynman
-
Although it is uncertain, it is necessary to make science useful. Science is only useful if it tells you about some experiment that has not been done; it is not good if it only tells you what just went on.
Richard Feynman
