-What if all your questions were answered? Would you be happy then?
-I find it hard to imagine such a - state. A fairly small percentage of my questions have answers.
-But that's rather wonderful, don't you agree?
-No. It wouldn't be scientific to agree.
-You conceive of science as nothing more than answers to questions?
-As a system for generating answers.
-And what is the purpose of that?
-... To know.
-And what will you do with your knowledge?
-... Find out more.
-But why?
-I don't know. It's the way I am.
