“I like going to museums and stuff, but I also like going out and doing lots of physical activity like camping and hiking. I like doing stuff that I've never done before. Curiosity is a big thing. Usually it means that people are intelligent and that they want to learn stuff about the world.” PeopleWorldWantMeanDoneBigsStuffActivityIntelligentCuriosityMuseumsHikingGoing OutBig ThingsCampingPhysical ActivityCamping Out Author:Nicholas D'Agosto

“What I mean by living to one's-self is living in the world, as in it, not of it: it is as if no one know there was such a person, and you wished no one to know it: it is to be a silent spectator of the mighty scene of things, not an object of attention or curiosity in it; to take a thoughtful, anxious interest in what is passing in the world, but not to feel the slightest inclination to make or meddle with it.” IfsKnowsWorldFeelsMeanPersonsSelfInterestAttentionObjectsSceneSilentCuriosityPassingPassingsThoughtfulAnxiousInclinationSpectators Book:Table-talk: Or Original Essays Source: Table-talk: Or Original Essays
“I enter a whorehouse with the same interest as I do the British museum or the Metropolitan - in the same spirit of curiosity. Here are the works of man, here is an art of man, here is the eternal pursuit of gold and pleasure. I couldn't be more sincere. This doesn't mean that if I go to La Scala in Milan to hear Carmen I want to get up on the stage and participate. I do not. Neither do I always participate in a fine representative national whorehouse - but I must see it as a spectacle, an offering, a symptom of a nation.” IfsMenWantMeanArtWisdomSpiritNationsInterestPleasureStageFineEternalGoldCuriosityBritishPursuitGet UpAustraliaSincereMuseumsOfferingRepresentativesSymptomsMilanMetropolitanBritish Museum Author:Errol Flynn
