Discovery Quotes
Discovery is basically the act of discovering or finding some information that was previously not known. It is not the generation of new information or not the invention of any new information but just the finding of it. Discovery normally happens with respect to something that existed once but is not more or which has been there for a long time but now new facts are known about that thing.
