Happy is he who gets to know the reasons for things. Virgil (70-19 BCE) Roman poet.
The gods did not reveal from the beginning All things to us; but in the course of time Through seeking, men found that which is better. But as for certain truth, no man has known it, Nor will he know it; neither of the gods, Nor yet of all the things of which I speak. And even if by chance he were to utter The final truth, he would himself not know it; For all is but a woven web of guesses.

Happy is he who gets to know the reasons for things.
Virgil (70-19 BCE) Roman poet.
The gods did not reveal from the beginning
All things to us; but in the course of time
Through seeking, men found that which is better.
But as for certain truth, no man has known it,
Nor will he know it; neither of the gods,
Nor yet of all the things of which I speak.
And even if by chance he were to utter
The final truth, he would himself not know it;
For all is but a woven web of guesses.
Xenophanes (c. 570-c. 480 BCE) Greek philosopher.
