Context: Science doesn't always go forwards. It's a bit like doing a Rubik's cube. You sometimes have to make more of a mess with a Rubik's cube before you can get it to go right.

Sometimes you discover the picture you thought you had, that everybody thought we had, actually turns out to be wrong.

“Not unlike the toaster, I control darkness.”
