Curiosity

We’ve been at the WSJ’s tech conference all week.

All week, everywhere you looked, there was Rupert Murdoch, the 83-year-old chairman of News Corp, the Journal’s parent company.

Finally, as the conference closed today, we cornered Murdoch as he was leaving a the show’s final session.

We asked him, after all the money he’s made, prestige and power he’s accumulated: Why is he still working?

He gave a one word answer: “Curiosity.

We pressed him.

He said, “You’ve got to look to the future. You can’t look back.”-from BI
