    Disciples do owe unto masters only a temporary belief, and a sus- pension of their own judgment till they be fully instructed, and not an absolute resignation, or perpetual captivity : and therefore . so let great authors have their due, as Time, which is the author of authors, be not deprived of his due, which is, further and further to discover truth.—Francis Bacon, Of the Advancement of Learning, Book I.
