"Imagine a field that answers questions more often than it finds new ones; that'd be a pretty stagnant field to be in."

Funnily enough, that's what the science community of the ending 19. century thought about physics, before they started to look deeper.

Max Planck was advised against a career in physics, because:

"In this field, almost everything is already discovered, and all that remains is to fill a few holes."

He rather found some more holes.
