"..in the despair of knowing anything; nor, on the other side, question everything and disclaim all knowledge, because some things are not to be understood."
"Our business here is not to know all things, but whose which concern our conduct."
Everyone always wants to know the answers to everything. They want to know what is truth and what is not. But are some things really that important to know? Do we really NEED to know everything. Back when we read Descartes he wanted all his knowledge he had was true but in Locke he understands that we don't really need to know everything. Somethings are just not supposed to be found or explained.
