You can't make experimental work by copying past work.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are people who say that you can't experiment... That condemns you to failure.
I never experiment with anything in my books. Experimentation means you don't know what you're doing.
You can't copy anybody and end with anything. If you copy, it means you're working without any real feeling.
If you want to experiment, do something temporary.
You've got to experiment to figure out what works.
You never know with these things when you're trying something new what can happen. This is all experimental.
It's not an experiment if you know it's going to work.
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.
Sometimes you can fail in an experiment. But if you fail, you still don't stop observing that thing, looking for a better way.
You can't really copy what I do because I don't do anything.
