Science is about being a blind man with a stick

What you learn, when you read works like Novum Organum by Sir Francis Bacon, is that science is about being a blind man with a stick, and he who most persistently pokes blindly ahead of him, contributes the most to our understanding of the Universe, though only if he is willing to accept what the poking tells him that he does not want to be true.
