Almost more than physical courage the ideal adventurer needs a certain lively inquisitiveness, the quality of not being content to mind his own affairs: and in Ashe this quality was highly developed. From boyhood up he had always been interested in things which were none o his business. And it is just that attribute which the modern young man, as a rule, so sadly lacks.
(from Something Fresh, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse)
