I am still of opinion that only two topics can be of the least interest to a serious and studious mood - sex and the dead.
William Butler Yeats
I'd like to think that the boring lady who's talking to me now is a lot sexier and more interesting than the one who's doing NPR. You know, studious and reserved, and - I bet you're a lot of fun at a party.
Gene Simmons
Learning, n. The kind of ignorance distinguishing the studious.
Ambrose Bierce
Some are so very studious of learning what was done by the ancients that they know not how to live with the moderns.
William Penn
The earth was made so various, that the mind Of desultory man, studious of change, And pleased with novelty, might be indulged.
William Cowper
Where studious of ease, I slumbered seven years, and then lost by degrees.
Christopher Anstey
