Summer moodboard
We think in questions. If knowledge is a complex web inside the mind, each node is a question, and each connecting line the information you’ve picked up on the journey from node to node. The pursuit of knowledge is the accumulation of questions. They shape our identity as much by being asked as by being answered.
Sindhu Shivaprasad • Questions Are Desire Paths of Curiosity
Tell me, what questions do you carry, that wouldn’t exist if you knew exactly what you were doing? (Hint: That’s where your next interesting thing lives)
Beth Kempton • Confessions of a Self-Help Author
A question is a lens that frames how you see things.
A question is a provocation.
A question is what stirs up new associations and brings up mental cues.
A question leads, and directs.
A good question gets to the heart of things.
A bad question gives you red herrings.
One of the most salient features of our culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share.
Harry Frankfurt • On Bullshit
I have come to the conviction that if you cannot translate your thoughts into uneducated language, then your thoughts were confused. Power to translate is the test of having really understood one's own meaning.
—C.S. Lewis
