Theory and Practice - Sometimes nothing works and no one knows why

I love the moment of discovery, when something unimaginable springs into being.

Theory is when you know everything, but nothing works.

Practice is when everything works, but no one knows why.

Sometimes, however, theory and practice are combined ... that's when nothing works and no one knows why.
