![[I]t is necessary to insist upon this extraordinary but undeniable fact: experimental science has progressed thanks in great part to the work of men astoundingly mediocre, and even less than mediocre.

Text Quotes
Science is defined in various ways, but today it is generally restricted to something which is experimental, which is repeatable, which can be predicted, and which is falsifiable. (Experimental Science Quotes)
Mathematics is a part of physics. Physics is an experimental science, a part of natural science. Mathematics is the part of physics where experiments are cheap. (Experimental Science Quotes)
The theory of numbers, more than any other branch of mathematics, began by being an experimental science. Its most famous theorems have all been conjectured, sometimes a hundred years or more before they were proved; and they have been suggested by the evidence of a mass of computations. (Experimental Science Quotes)
An experimental science is supposed to perform experiments that find generalities. It’s not just supposed to tally up a long list of individual cases and their unique life histories. That’s butterfly collecting. (Experimental Science Quotes)
I studied science and journalism at the University of Colorado and then got interested in experimental film there and started doing my own films. (Experimental Science Quotes)
The science of constructing a commonwealth, or renovating it, or reforming it, is, like every other experimental science, not to be taught a priori. Nor is it a short experience that can instruct us in that practical science, because the real effects of moral causes are not always immediate (Experimental Science Quotes)
Experimental science is a craft and an art, and part of the art is knowing when to end a fruitless experiment. There is a danger of becoming obsessed with a fruitless experiment even if it goes nowhere. It is always a good plan for a speculative experimenter to have two experiments going, or at least one going and one being built (Experimental Science Quotes)
[I]t is necessary to insist upon this extraordinary but undeniable fact: experimental science has progressed thanks in great part to the work of men astoundingly mediocre, and even less than mediocre. That is to say, modern science, the root and symbol of our actual civilization, finds a place for the intellectually commonplace man and allows him to work therein with success (Experimental Science Quotes)
Restoration ecology is experimental science, a science of love and altruism. In its attempts to reverse the processes of ecosystem degradation it runs exactly counter to the market system, to land speculation, to the whole cultural attitude of regarding the Earth as commodity rather than community. It is a soft-souled science (Experimental Science Quotes)
Eve and the apple was the first great step in experimental science (Experimental Science Quotes)
Mathematics is an experimental science, and definitions do not come first, but later on (Experimental Science Quotes)
Science is objective. And in my view we cannot take any experimental results seriously except in the light of good explanations of them (Experimental Science Quotes)
If the aim of physical theories is to explain experimental laws, theoretical physics is not an autonomous science; it is subordinate to metaphysics (Experimental Science Quotes)
With the aid of these active experimental sciences man becomes an inventor of phenomena, a real foreman of creation; and under this head we cannot set limits to the power that he may gain over nature through future progress of the experimental sciences (Experimental Science Quotes)
Moreover, in the experimental sciences, the scientific fraternity must test a new theory to destruction, if possible (Experimental Science Quotes)
I have a Ph. D. In cell biology. And that's really manual labor. I mean, experimental science, you do it with your hands. So it's very different. You're out there in a lab, cleaning test tubes, and it just wasn't that fascinating (Experimental Science Quotes)
Chemistry is necessarily an experimental science: its conclusions are drawn from data, and its principles supported by evidence from facts (Experimental Science Quotes)
Experimental science hardly ever affords us more than approximations to the truth; and whenever many agents are concerned we are in great danger of being mistaken (Experimental Science Quotes)
My final remark to young women and men going into experimental science is that they should pay little attention to the speculative physics ideas of my generation. After all, if my generation has any really good speculative ideas, we will be carrying these ideas out ourselves (Experimental Science Quotes)
Physical science enjoys the distinction of being the most fundamental of the experimental sciences, and its laws are obeyed universally, so far as is known, not merely by inanimate things, but also by living organisms, in their minutest parts, as single individuals, and also as whole communities. It results from this that, however complicated a series of phenomena may be and however many other sciences may enter into its complete presentation, the purely physical aspect, or the application of the known laws of matter and energy, can always be legitimately separated from the other aspects (Experimental Science Quotes)
As in the experimental sciences, truth cannot be distinguished from error as long as firm principles have not been established through the rigorous observation of facts (Experimental Science Quotes)
In the experimental sciences, the epochs of the most brilliant progress are almost always separated by long intervals of almost absolute repose (Experimental Science Quotes)
In teaching man, experimental science results in lessening his pride more and more by proving to him every day that primary causes, like the objective reality of things, will be hidden from him forever and that he can only know relations (Experimental Science Quotes)
The strongest arguments prove nothing so long as the conclusions are not verified by experience. Experimental science is the queen of sciences and the goal of all speculation (Experimental Science Quotes)
Experimental science is fascinating, but I don't want to do it. I want other people to do it, and I'll read about it (Experimental Science Quotes)
