This seems like a variation of the saying that as one travels down a road without coming closer to a destination, one comes to understand that the journey is the destination.
Your initial premise is too simple for me...I like aberkok's metaphor better. For me, at least, it's one I can relate to. I think you're right that some folks need to end with an answer (even where there obviously is another "ladder rung" or twelve leading away from it). It's the other part of your statement I'm less certain about. I'm at a "question" point, but I'm not satisfied with that, and I haven't ended there. It is more a case of endlessly going through the "question to answer to question again" cycle, where I have no reason to know that I'll reach a final answer to a final question.
Very good metaphor, aberkok. And the answer to your question is "yes".
