Friday Filosophy #2016-2

I believe that one of the most important personal attributes to have to enjoy your life and grow as a person is curiosity. If you are curious you will be asking a lot of questions of yourself and of others. Isn’t why a wonderful question to pose on anything, at any time, for any reason? This is true as long as the answer given to you is not “because.”

So, for Friday Filosophy #2016-2, here are some interesting quotes from some interesting people on curiosity.

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Walt Disney

 

Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit.

Curiosity will conquer fear even more than bravery will.

Curiosity is natural to the soul of man and interesting objects have a powerful influence on our affections.

Leisure and curiosity might soon make great advances in useful knowledge, were they not diverted by minute emulation and laborious trifles.
