“Curiosity breeds discovery.”
“A morbid sense of curiosity can lead to remarkable discoveries in the wee hours of still dark nights.”
“But, as I have said, the bugs had no interest in getting us…and no great curiosity or enthusiasm about us as such; from the cowardly cockroaches to the blind stolid ants they wanted only to be left alone to eat and breed and eat and breed, just like us.”
“One of the most remarkable of all ornithological discoveries was the realisation that birds in temperate regions undergo enormous seasonal changes in their internal organs...Perhaps the most far-reaching discovery relating to these changes was the finding in the 1970s that parts of the brain also varied in size across the year...The centres in the avian brain that control the acquisition and delivery of song in male birds shrink at the end of the breeding season and grow again in the following year.”
“Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.”
“ Dancing is just discovery, discovery, discovery”
