He became another data point in the American experiment of self-government, an experiment statistically skewed from the outset, because it wasn't the people with sociable genes who fled the crowded Old World for the new continent it was the people who didn't get along well with others.
Jonathan Franzen
Image
I was reading all these male writers who were doing wild and wonderful things. It gave me permission to experiment.
Sandra Cisneros

To learn anything other than the stuff you find in books, you need to be able to experiment, to make mistakes, to accept feedback, and to try again. It doesn't matter whether you are learning to ride a bike or starting a new career, the cycle of experiment, feedback, and new experiment is always there.
Charles Handy

Democracy is only an experiment in government, and it has the obvious disadvantage of merely counting votes instead of weighing them.
William Ralph Inge
Image
It is inexcusable for scientists to torture animals let them make their experiments on journalists and politicians.
Henrik Ibsen

Our nearly century-long experiment in banning marijuana has failed as abysmally as Prohibition did... In contrast, legalizing and taxing marijuana would bring in substantial sums that could be used to pay for schools, libraries or early childhood education.

My desire to experiment comes from my attention-deficit approach to cosmetics. I just get really bored, really easily.

The nation's first experiment with the income tax was tried at this time another violation of the Constitution.
G. Edward Griffin

I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the Scriptures, but with experiments, and demonstrations.
Galileo Galilei
Image
I believe that I have really found the relationship between gravitation and electricity, assuming that the Miller experiments are based on a fundamental error. Otherwise, the whole relativity theory collapses like a house of cards.
Albert Einstein
Image
To be a poet you have to experiment.
Matthea Harvey

The importance of group theory was emphasized very recently when some physicists using group theory predicted the existence of a particle that had never been observed before, and described the properties it should have. Later experiments proved that this particle really exists and has those properties.
Irving Adler

I don't like the word experiment in the context of art in general. It implies something immature, unfinished, something entertaining for a moment before it becomes irrelevant.
Abel Korzeniowski
Image
Ideas for my first experiments in human aggression came from discussions we had in a research seminar about William Golding's 'Lord of the Flies.'
Philip Zimbardo

Vietnam was as much a laboratory experiment as a war.
John Pilger
Image
I was lucky enough to just play music as a living and not have a nine-to-five job. I didn't have to pay the bills so I was able to experiment.
Mark Stoermer

The enemy of photography is the convention, the fixed rules of 'how to do'. The salvation of photography comes from the experiment.
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy
Image
The observations and experiments of science are so wonderful that the truth that they establish can surely be accepted as another manifestation of God. God shows himself by allowing man to establish truth.
Derek Barton

When you really do feel like an alien, and you really do feel like a space creature, and you really do feel you want to experiment and dress up and be different every day, to find what looks best but never stick to one thing... Just the fact that that was offered to those kids during that time is pretty remarkable.
Todd Haynes

Classical physics has been superseded by quantum theory: quantum theory is verified by experiments. Experiments must be described in terms of classical physics.
Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker
Image
There's no point sitting here, using words that mean nothing. Go and experiment. It's time you got out of here. Go and re-conquer your kingdom, which has grown corrupted by routine. Stop repeating the same lesson, because you won't learn anything new that way.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Every experiment destroys some of the knowledge of the system which was obtained by previous experiments.
Werner Heisenberg
Image
If I'm smart as an artist, I wouldn't be a snob and turn it down, because I'd look at it and go, this is great stuff, but I definitely do want to experiment in other genres, or make films in other genres.
James Wan
Image
Analogies and metaphors have often proved pivotal in expanding our thoughts both within and without science, and so one should not discourage the attempt to synthesize apparent opposites. However, citizens of the New Age often forget that, when they involve science, analogies should be tempered by experiment and calculation.
