There are two sorts of curiosity - the momentary and the permanent. The momentary is concerned with the odd appearance on the surface of things. The permanent is attracted by the amazing and consecutive life that flows on beneath the surface of things.

  • -- Robert Wilson Lynd 罗伯特·威尔逊·林德

好奇心有两种——暂时的和永久的。瞬间是指事物表面的奇特现象。永恒者被事物表面下流动的惊人而连续的生命所吸引。
