"'This goddess Fortune frustrates, single-handed, the plans of a hundred learned men. ' In this saying the Latin author has given us the key to all the restless striving to search out the Unknown and the Unknowable which marks our own age, just as it has marked previous periods in history which we are apt to look back upon as being but little removed from the dark ages.
