You can't do without philosophy, since everything has its hidden meaning which we must know.

Philosophy will clip an Angel's wings, Conquer all mysteries by rule and line, Empty the haunted air, and gnomed mine- Unweave a rainbow.

Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains.
