The true delight is in the finding out rather than in the knowing.
Isaac Asimov
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.
Proverbs 25:2
I'd like to say "discuss"; but there is something slightly pompous about posting that in a debate forum. But I do invite discussion and opinion of this premise and these quotations.
Whilst we are all opinionated, and let's be honest now, we all are (even you scientists fight like cat and dog when there is a discovery, a prize or some peer recognition at stake), there are some here who truly believe they have THE truth. Where is the joy of discovery for them?
Look and see how Asimov and David both perceived the same truth separated by millennia in terms of time and a chasm in terms of philosophy.
Err...discuss.
