He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead.

Wonder is the beginning of wisdom.

If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what then, is an empty desk?

Don't be so familiar and so much into the details. Keep people dreaming. Close the window, and make them wonder.

Cultivate curiosity and strive to become a little wiser every day.

I'm turned on by guys who are cultured. That'll keep me intrigued. They don't have to have a single degree, but they should speak other languages or know things about other parts of the world or history or certain artists or musicians. I like to be taught. I like to sit on that side of the table.
