CURIOSITY

The catbird has the courage of his convictions, and one of these

convictions is that he has the right to the satisfaction of an

ungovernable and enormous curiosity. Bait your bird-trap in the

woods with something which strikes a bird as a curiosity that

courts immediate investigation and you will catch a catbird.

Other birds might start for it, but the catbird would distance

them.--WINTHROP PACKARD, “Wild Pastures.”
