Ronald Fisher Chance Quotations

No isolated experiment, however significant in itself, can suffice for the experimental demonstration of any natural phenomenon; for the "one chance in a million" will undoubtedly occur, with no less and no more than its appropriate frequency, however surprised we may be that it should occur to us.

The million, million, million ... to one chance happens once in a million, million, million ... times no matter how surprised we may be that it results in us.
