Famous quotes with Experiment (on)

  • The pattern of things was that each of the research students would be doing some particular experiment (on) the accelerator, often involving the building of counters or a system like that.

  • What constitutes a real, live human being is more of a mystery than ever these days, and men each one of whom is a valuable, unique experiment (on) the part of nature are shot down wholesale.

  • As a people we must be united. If we are not united we shall slip into the gulf of measureless disaster.

If as a nation we are split into warring camps, if we teach our citizens not to look upon one another as brothers but as enemies divided by the hatred of creed for creed or of those of one race against those of another race, surely we shall fail and our great democratic experiment (on) this continent will go down in crushing overthrow.
    Theodore Roosevelt

    Hermann Hesse
