Explore, dream, discover…..

He may have been most famous for his fictitious characters Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, yet  Mark Twain enjoyed a curious career path. At various times in his life, he was apprentice printer; typesetter; riverboat pilot; failed gold miner; journalist; author; public speaker; investor; and eventual bankrupt. He was a friend to presidents, artists, industrialists and royalty.

Anyone stuck for a great quotation knows that Twain’s bank of humour and great insight is likely to get you out of a jam. This one caught our attention…..

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the harbour. Explore. Dream. Discover”.

We like it. It sums up the philosophy of The School of Curiosity. We are creating a place for everyone who thinks that they could do so much more with their lives. We don’t set out to tell you what you should do and how you should do it – that’s for you to uncover. We are just people who have no intention of living with disappointment twenty years from now.

You?
