Harold Casely

Harold Casely, (August 3, 1803 - May 17, 1854) an author not known very well, wrote small works such as "La Crosse", "Without Meanness", "Temptation", "Privacy to the World", "Neither Useful Nor Enjoyable", and "The Saga Ended". He was considered a part of the Romantic Movement, small part that he played to it.
He was born Haroldson Kairos Casely in Boston, Massachusetts. His parent's names were Lilah Jordan-Casely and George Casely. He attended college for a short while before dispatching from his parents to do literary works on his own, in the privacy of his own home, of which the book "Privacy to the World" stemmed from. His primary focus in literature was the human fascination with the unknown and instinctual curiosity. He shared the outlook that curiosity was the root of the world's problems.
Very little is known about Casely, but some of his famous quotes included, "The more you know about something, the less interesting it becomes, the unknown is the greatest entertainer", "Kings and tyrants are merely curious-they want to see what their kingdom would look like with conquest", "The devil wears the face of the known, curiosity his favorite tool", "God is blind-and for good reason", "When the candle dies, so does the fear" and "Temptation is better the 2nd time.".
