About this Quote

This quote by Cicero speaks to the innate interest of people. It suggests that we are born with an inherent desire to seek out the truth and to understand the world around us. This yearning is something that is deeply rooted in our minds and is something that we can not ignore. It is this insatiable curiosity that drives us to explore, to learn, and to find. It is this exact same curiosity that has actually caused the development of science, innovation, and other kinds of knowledge. This quote is a suggestion that we ought to never ever stop looking for the truth which we must never ever be satisfied with what we already know. It is just through our unrelenting pursuit of knowledge that we can truly comprehend the world around us.
