Famous quotes containing the word curiosity:
“I take enormous pleasure every time I see something that Ive done that cannot be wiped out. In some way ... I guess its a protest against mortality. But its been so much fun! Its the curiosity that drives me. Its making a difference in the world that prevents me from ever giving up.”
—Deborah Meier (b. 1931)
“All inquiry into antiquity, all curiosity respecting the Pyramids, the excavated cities, Stonehenge, the Ohio Circles, Mexico, Memphis,is the desire to do away this wild, savage, and preposterous There and Then, and introduce in its place the Here and Now.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“When we do not know the truth of a thing, it is of advantage that there should exist a common error which determines the mind of man.... For the chief malady of man is restless curiosity about things which he cannot understand; and it is not so bad for him to be in error as to be curious to no purpose.”
—Blaise Pascal (16231662)
