to know or not to know?

Knowledge is an attitude, a passion, actually an illicit attitude. For the compulsion to know is like dipsomania, erotomania, and homicidal mania, in producing a character that is out of balance. It is not at all that the scientist goes after the truth. It is out after him [or her]. It is something he [or she] suffers from.

~Soren Kierkegaard
