"Secrets, and to greater extent ignorance of the truth of things, are paramount to the Imperium's very existence. Knowledge is a calcified and restricted thing. One simple reason for this restriction is that it is better that people have faith than facts, for the facts allow little room for hope and realization of the true horrors that confront humanity would only lead to destruction and utter despair."
