The Mystery of Science

As someone who enjoys reading about Space or Relativity or any of the other complex scientific theories (string theory!) for the sense of awe that it inspires, this sentiment from Roger Ebert spoke to me:

... I read articles about astronomy and physics. It doesn't matter to me how much I understand. Their buried message is always the same: Somewhere out there, or somewhere deep inside, there are mysteries of which we perceive only vague shadows, and there are possibly more mysteries within those shadows, continuing indefinitely.
