Thomas Hobbes

Simplified Meaning:

When people are curious, it means they really want to learn and know more about something, just like someone feels desire for things they love. Think about how a child always asks “why” and “how” all the time. They are not doing it just to ask questions, but because they have a strong need to understand the world around them. In the same way, when adults are curious, they feel a strong pull to discover new ideas, skills, or information. This can be compared to having a craving or deep interest in something. For example, famous scientists like Albert Einstein were very curious about how things work. Their great desire to learn and understand led to important discoveries that changed the world. By staying curious, people keep their minds active and engaged, leading to personal growth and a more interesting life.
