... In his book Science Is Not Enough, Mr. Vannevar Bush said many things. Those aware of his work with committees of the government know of some of his interests. It is said MJ-12 was directed by him initially.

Page 191-
“Science has a simple faith, which transcends utility nearly all men of science, all men of learning for that matter, and men of simple ways too, have it in some form and in some degree. It is the faith that it is the privilege of man to learn to understand, and that this is his mission.
If we abandon that mission under stress we shall abandon it forever, for stress will not cease. Knowledge for the sake of understanding, not merely to prevail, that is the essence of our being. None can define its limits, or set its ultimate boundaries. Our children’s children may weight it more than we, may be able to lift the curtain just a bit, and believe they know why all this is so.”

With regards to understanding,
