How could youths better learn to live than by at once trying the experiment of living?

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

I like the challenge of trying different things and wondering whether they’ll work or whether they won’t.

I don’t think that you can invent on behalf of customers unless you’re willing to think long-term, because a lot of invention doesn’t work. If you’re going to invent, it means you’re going to experiment, and if you’re going to experiment, you’re going to fail, and if you’re going to fail, you have to think long term.

I like to experiment with my voice, besides music.

No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong.

I have nothing new to teach the world. Truth and Non-violence are as old as the hills. All I have done is to try experiments in both on as vast a scale as I could.

It’s not an experiment if you know it’s going to work.

Don’t be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment.

I was always playing the Hammond Organ back to front even during the days of the Nice, going back to 1968. Really what I was doing there, was choosing notes at random and trying to make some sense of them, improvising back to front.
