None of the gods love wisdom or desire to become wise, for they are wise already -- nor if someone else is wise, do they love wisdom. Neither do the ignorant love wisdom or desire to become wise; for this is the grievous thing about ignorance, that those who are neither good nor beautiful think they are good enough, and do not desire that which they do not think they are lacking. ~Plato, Symposium 203E-204A At the simplest level, only people who know they do not know everything will be curious enough to find things out. ~Virginia Postrel, The Future and Its Enemies, p.88 [The Free Press, 1998] I'm even simpler---- I know nothing. (a wise-crack) ~.~
