Questions Are Desire Paths of Curiosity

Interesting questions make for interesting stories, interesting writing, and interesting lives.

Forming a good question is not easy; it requires a careful choice of parts and a precise posing of the processes whereby those parts depend upon one another.

Curiosity is the panacea to boredom. If you are having a hard time connecting a dull body of knowledge to your endeavors, keep asking yourself questions and don’t sleep until you find at least a glimmer of an answer.

Accounts by philosophers Ilhan Inan and Lani Watson, for example, characterize curiosity as an individual motivation to find out a specific referent or to acquire certain epistemic goods, respectively.
