Has it all been said?

[HerenIstarion]

It seems to me that in the very asking of the question you partially answer it in favour of the latter option. Indeed, sub-creation is finite - you can't get more out than there was put in. But why 'dead end'? Creator is no less interesting, and even more interesting, since his [sub]creation was only part of him, and there must be 'layers' upon 'layers' of things other.

Though, learning 'about' the man always seemed to me an approach losing as compared to 'knowing the man'. Unfortunately, we can no more get to 'know the man', but we may, at least, get to know each other (feat we already are on the way of accomplishing, however imperfect the medium may be) on the way, which would be quite signigicant gain.

To add to the saying, 'those to seek shall find', but who ever said they'll find exactly the thing they were looking for?

Evasive mood on me, but maybe I'll get back to this later...
