Sir Francis Bacon on Uncertainty

So, I stumbled across this quote by Sir Francis Bacon (you know, the guy who invented the scientific method) regarding the relationship between doubt and certainty.

If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts;
but if he will be content to begin with doubts he shall end in certainties.
- Sir Francis Bacon


It got me thinking because I this happens all the time in projects. And you know what happens when I start thinking... blog post. Yeah.

Oh yeah.
