"Our Desire for Knowledge..." comes from a quote out of Art Historian/Cultural Historian Jacob Burckhardt's delightful book, "Reflections on History. There are flaws in the practice of research, facts can be confused with opinions, as Burckhardt continues in this book: "Nor can we rid ourselves entirely of the views of our own time and personality, and here, perhaps, is the worst enemy of knowledge."
