"What a curious
phenomenon it is
that you can get
men
to die for the
liberty of the world
who will not make
the little sacrifice
that is needed to
free themselves from
their own individual
bondage."
[BRUCE BARTON] |
|
|

 |
"You can
teach a student
a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to
learn by creating
curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives."
[CLAY P. BEDFORD] |

"Only barbarians are not
curious about where they come from, how they came to be where they are,
where they appear to be going, whether they
wish to go there, and if so,
why, and if not, why not."
[SIR ISAIAH BERLIN] |

"Go around asking a lot
of damfool questions and taking chances. Only through curiosity can we
discover opportunities, and only by gambling can we take advantage of
them."

"Be less curious about
people and more curious about ideas."
[MARIE CURIE]
|
|

 |
"Creatures whose
mainspring is
curiosity enjoy the
accumulating of
facts far more than
the pausing at
times
to reflect on those
facts."
[CLARENCE DAY] |
|

 |
"The important thing is
not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One
cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of
eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough
if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day.
Never lose a holy curiosity."
[ALBERT EINSTEIN] |
|
|
| |
 |
"The whole
art of
teaching is only the
art of awakening the natural curiosity of young
minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards."
[ANATOLE FRANCE]

"I can sympathize with
people's pains, but not with their pleasures. There is something
curiously boring about somebody else's
happiness."
