About This Quote

An experiment is a question which science poses to Nature and a measurement is the recording of Nature's answer. This quote holds a great truth. The experiment is a way of testing a theory by doing a controlled experiment with the help of a scientist. In the same way, when we have an idea in our mind, we have to test it out by trying it out in real life.

If we have an idea, then we have to put it into action and see what happens. In this way, we can see if our idea works or not. If our idea does not work, then we have to rethink our idea and try out something else.

It is important to think about what you want in life and how you can get there in a way that makes sense for you.
