No man of science wants merely to know. He acquires knowledge to appease his passion for discovery. He does not discover in order to know, he knows in order to discover.

Alfred North Whitehead
Passion, Knowledge, Science
Alfred North Whitehead (1967). “Aims of Education”, p.48, Simon and Schuster
No man of science wants merely to know. He acquires knowledge to appease his passion for discovery. He does not discover in order to know, he knows in order to discover.
