“It is curious and we magicians collect curiosities, you know.”

“Children, be curious. Nothing is worse (I know it) than when curiosity stops. Nothing is more repressive than the repression of curiosity. Curiosity begets love. It weds us to the world. It's part of our perverse, madcap love for this impossible planet we inhabit. People die when curiosity goes. People have to find out, people have to know.”

“It's a defining difference, curiosity. I've never known a stupid person who was curious, or a curious person who was stupid.”

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

“Be curious. Read widely. Try new things. What people call intelligence just boils down to curiosity.”

“Curiosity will not cause us to die, only lack of it will. For only the curious have, if they live, a tale worth telling at all.”
