That at any rate is the theory of our Constitution. It is an experiment, as all life is an experiment.
—OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES Every experiment is like a weapon, which must be used in its particular way—a spear to thrust, a club to strike. Experimenting requires that a man know when to thrust and when to strike, according to need and fashion.
—PARACELSUS (PHILIPPUS AUREOLUS THEOPHRASTUS BOMBAST VON HOHENHEIM) Pascal fretted throughout the controversy. Even in his own mind, he had not proved the e

Since Pascal had always played the devil’s advocate in the debates with his father and Monsieur Petit, he could not get past the possibility that he had created only an apparent vacuum and no real vacuum at all. Père Noël and Descartes were right: the burden of proof was on him. Could there not at least be a limited horror of the vacuum, as Galileo suggested?
