Salon has an interesting interview with James Carse, author of "Finite 
and Infinite Games" as well as his newest book "The Religious Case 
Against Belief":

An excerpt from the book:

"Galileo was dedicated to the truth however it emerged. But what we see 
in his life is that there is no end of truths, and not one of them is 
beyond challenge. There is always something new and unexpected to be 
learned. What drove him, in other words, was not his knowledge but his 
ignorance. He *knew* that he did not know. He also knew he never would 
know it all."
