Famous quotes containing the words experimental and/or forest:

    Whenever a man acts purposively, he acts under a belief in some experimental phenomenon. Consequently, the sum of the experimental phenomena that a proposition implies makes up its entire bearing upon human conduct.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    You have debased [my] child.... You have made him a laughingstock of intelligence ... a stench in the nostrils of the gods of the ionosphere.
    Lee, Dr. De Forest (1873–1961)
