Curiosity is little more than another name for Hope. – Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare, Guesses at Truth, by Two Brothers
Although there may be nothing new under the sun, what is old is new to us and so rich and astonishing that we never tire of it. If we do tire of it, if we lose our curiosity, we have lost something of infinite value, because to a high degree it is curiosity that gives meaning and savour to life. – Robertson Davies
