Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas.
~ Marie Curie Nothing is more curious than the almost savage hostility that humor excites in those who lack it.
~ George Saintsbury It is a curious thing... that every creed promises a paradise which will be absolutely uninhabitable for anyone of civilized taste.
~ Evelyn Waugh It is curious to note the old sea-margins of human thought. Each subsiding century reveals some new mystery; we build where monsters used to hide themselves.
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
~ Mark Twain It is in fact nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curious of inquiry. It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.
~ Albert Einstein It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize how much you love them.
~ Agatha Christie When I found the skull in the woods, the first thing I did was call the police. But then I got curious about it. I picked it up, and started wondering who this person was, and why he had deer horns.
~ Jack Handey Deep Thoughts It is a curious fact that when we get sick we want an uncommon doctor... When we get into a war, we dreadfully want an uncommon admiral and an uncommon general. Only when we get into politics are we content with the common man.
~ Herbert Clark Hoover It is a curious thing ... that every creed promises a paradise which will be absolutely uninhabitable for anyone of civilized taste.
~ Evelyn Waugh What a curious phenomenon it is that you can get men to die for the liberty of the world who will not make the little sacrifice that is needed to free themselves from their own individual bondage.
~ Bruce Barton By a curious confusion, many modern critics have passed from the proposition that a masterpiece may be unpopular to the other proposition that unless it is unpopular it cannot be a masterpiece.
~ G. K. Chesterton
