why understand much when you can understand well? it's not about what but
how. at least that's one way to look at it.
if to be incurious is one mind's manner then why not? I mean, curiosity
cannot be denied or discarded anyway. it's still What that's the question, &
it's not a necessarily important one.
what Is, should Be. for a writer. and that's the way it goes one way or
another (How).
