Curiosity did not kill the cat

Inertia, and not the lack of thought, that is the root of all evil. If science can be believed, the best way to counter inertia is for a greater force to come into the picture. Applying this to life, this greater force, I am coming to see, is self-determination. Will. So the stronger the will, the more determined you are to move. The freer you are, the less influence "inertia" has on you. The more influence it has on your life, the less you BECOME. Thus, if you allow this, eventually, you will amount to NOTHING.

So with this, I say that, I do not think it was ultimately curiosity that killed the cat. It was boredom.
