Each story we approach in the same way, with curiosity and interest and determination to get behind the image.

No Interest to Be of Interest
No...
I have no interest.
'But I have yet to ask the question! '
No...
I have no interest,
To be of interest to know the question.
Nor can a curiosity,
Remove from me my peace of mind.
Nothing you can find to ask me,
Is going to begin with...
'I apologize! '

When I was young, my mindset was image, image, image. I took that approach with the media. As I became more experienced I realized: No matter what, people are going to like you or not like you. So be authentic, and let them like you or not for who you actually are. At that point, I started keeping all of my answers blunt and straightforward. I would mix in some humor and sarcasm, too. I think fans and reporters came to appreciate that, came to appreciate the real me.

To Let Fade Away and Dissipate
It isn't in my interest to discuss it.
That determination you confess...
Still addresses laziness.
It isn't in my interest to discuss it.
How you lay around and sit...
As you waste precious time,
Accepting procrastination as legit.
And you say I'm not supportive,
And abort listening to you.
You accuse me of being distant,
From those things you choose to do.
But you're the one who hesitates...
In masquerades you initiate.
It isn't in my interest to discuss it.
That determination you confess...
Still addresses laziness.
It isn't in my interest to discuss it.
How you lay around and sit...
As you waste much precious time,
Accepting procrastination as legit.
And you say I'm not supportive,
And abort listening to you.
You accuse me of being distant,
From those things you choose to do.
But you're the one who hesitates...
In masquerades you initiate.
You say I am the one,
Who creates and generates hate?
One of us has to generate something.
But I wouldn't call it hate created.
I'd call it a lack of appreciation...
For those talents and skills,
You continue with excuses made...
To let fade away and dissipate.

There are various sorts of curiosity; one is from interest, which makes us desire to know that which may be useful to us; and the other, from pride which comes from the wish to know what others are ignorant of.

To Be Happy, Make Others Happy.
Hearing a story is a pleasure;
Curiosity enlivens it.
Telling a story is more a pleasure;
Pride of knowing enhances it..

The basic drive behind real philosophy is curiosity about the world, not interest in the writings of philosophers.

At first, I see pictures of a story in my mind. Then creating the story comes from asking questions of myself. I guess you might call it the 'what if - what then' approach to writing and illustration.

Pay You Back With Interest
(clarke / hicks / nash)
Too many people need me
Ive got so much, so much to do
But when my travelling is over
Ill pay you back with interest
Ill pay you back with interest
It seems unfair to leave you
And sell myself the way I do
But when my wandering is over
Ill pay you back with interest
Ill pay you back with interest
Most of my life Ive been moving
And when I tire out Ill come home to you
But until then Ill be waiting
Ill pay you back with interest
Ill pay you back with interest
How cold is my room, (how cold is my room)
Without your love beside me
We look at the same old moon (looking at the moon)
But youre not here beside me
Ill pay you back with interest
Ill pay you back with interest
Break
Too many people need me
Ive got so much, so much to do
But when my travelling is over
Ill pay you back with interest
Ill pay you back with interest

The Hypnotic Princess Charming
You are
a precious, magical looking glass
made of curiosity and empathy
through which people see a beautiful image
of what they want to see
of you
of themselves

Curiosity
Because of curiosity
All the Vandals had to see
The golden throne
Of Ancient Rome
And brought the city to its knees
Because of curiosity
Because of curiosity
I'm just riddled with anxiety
I'm the lowest level
As a matter of fact
I often dwell for days on this
But when I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
And if you're holding out on me
I get curious
As curious as I can be
Curious
Because of curiosity
Curiosity killed the cat
But satisfaction brought it back
In terms of this cat
As a matter of fact
I'll meet you at the old mouse hole
I'll meet you at the old mouse hole
When I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
If you're holding out on me
I get curious
As curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Yeah, curiosity

Action in Inaction, understand Inaction in Action
Alas..
My own difference and lack of confidence,
Or may be unwillingness,
May be negligence or may be indifference,
Accompanied with laziness says..
I Won't Do it or I can't do it..! ! ! `
My own necessities,
My own requirements,
my own thoughts and motives compel me to say,
I Want to Do It`:
My own self assessment,
My own speculations,
My own gained confidence, Shaken by unknown fears, or expectations of unknown consequences
say,
I Can't Do It`
My own jovial and casual nature,
Mixed with curiosity and self interest,
My own desire to survive say,
I Will Try To Do It`:
My own ignorance,
My own insufficient knowledge,
Insufficient experience
Incompetent attitude say,
How Do I Do It`
My own self,
my own interests,
My own confidence
My love and necessities say,
I Can Do It..
My own determination,
My own will power,
My own arrogance,
My own decision My own preparedness
say,
I Will Do It..
And the result is...
Yes.. I Did It..! ! !
Each day If I move towards,
Infinite self or the bigger self in me,
The gigantic and potential selfless doer in me,
I love Him and believe in his guidance,
no need of those steps above mentioned,
Only work without ambitions,
Action in inaction,
Inaction in action is understood well!

Interests grow old.
Knowledge expels ignorance.
With ignorance goes curiosity.
Where from will come interest

Struggle For Independence
A Mother lost her child and a brother lost his sister
And a Nation loses its statistics on number of people
Eloping with fears of darkness and for life
Following the life where it takes with the hope of light
Arrived in a new island
New faces and new experiences
Curiosity and positivity pushed us harder
Haven't really got lost which was amazing part
Managing to struggle with difficulties
Smiles on every individual with the determination
Self identity being maintained from generation to generation
Keeping the fist up for unity and freedom
Morally stood for each other and for the nation
Smell and taste of freedom
True story of independence watched by the world
Sooner will get to put the feet and face the wind of the wonderful motherland

Forbidden Knowledge For Dr H.Sheth
Driven by curiosity
the monkey mind of modern man.
Creates new technology
to find out everything he can.
Regardless of the consequence.
He has to know, he is obsessed.
Although rarely can he make sense
of things that catch his interest.
He has to try and satisfy
his raging curiosity.
The normal rules do not apply
to someone searching earnestly
for answers to the mysteries
Which have bedevilled humankind.
Throughout all mankind’s history.
The answers we will never find.
Some knowledge is forbidden us
Because we do not need to know
We’re immature and dangerous.
We must accept the Status Quo
Until we learn to think ahead
Consider probabilities
alternatives to use instead
within our capabilities.
We are spendthrift and profligate
Take what we want without remorse
Destroy much more than we create.
Greed is the creed which we endorse.

Need I Say More...
You can choose to pick and peck,
Your petty indifferences with me.
But the way I see it from my perspective,
Is this...
I am not the one threatening to foreclose,
On your home to leave you homeless.
Nor did I loan you any money at all,
To finance a car you can not make installments.
And neither am I,
One of your many creditors...
Attempting to repossess those standards you value.
When I walked away from those agonies,
Those friends I had...
Also quickly left.
And you wish to approach me with your pettiness?
I suggest,
You take me off of your priority list.
And find someone else,
To play 'your' games of reality with.
Remember you told me this...
'You ain't got nothing that would interest me.
You just another broke...'
Need I say more...
Before I go?
And I am glad I am of no interest to you.
And please...
Stop reminding me.

Determination
Girl the last time I saw you, you were crying my name
When I put you on the spot,
Will you still feel the same
Show me some determination
Show me the measure of your dedication
I need to see just a reflection of your inspiration
Dont you break down on me
Im looking for someone,
Someone strong enough to believe in
Everybodys looking for someone
Strong enough to stand on his feet
And never break down
Ill put my life on the line and believe what you say
Ill go out on a limb if you meet me halfway
Im looking for someone
To show me what they mean by devotion
Everybodys looking for someone
Prepared to put aside his emotion
And never break down
Youre a new wave raver and you like to talk tough
But can you still cut the mustard
When the going gets rough
I need a demonstration of your determination
Give me an indication of your determination
Three days in the rain and I aint had no sleep
But I wont break down now, I got a promise to keep
Showing my determination
cause thats the way I am
