Summary

This quote suggests that in science, it is common to develop a general hypothesis based on just a few specific observations or examples of a particular phenomenon. It implies that scientists often make wider assumptions or predictions about a phenomenon based on limited evidence. This approach reflects the iterative and inductive nature of scientific inquiry, where theories are gradually built upon observations and evidence, even if they may not perfectly represent every instance of a phenomenon.

I was going to make movies. I was the one in the family who was always rolling the video camera, making movies of my brothers around town, and then screening them for my parents.
