hellenismo:“Wonder is the "beginning of Philosophy” as he (Plato) remarks in the Theaetetus and for this reason Iris is called the daughter of “Wonder” according to the old saying" (Proklos, in Alc. 43)- “This sense of wonder is the mark of the philosopher. Philosophy indeed has no other origin, and he was a good genealogist who made Iris the daughter of Thaumas.” (Plato, Theaetetus 153d) (Iris, messenger of the Gods; Christie’s, London, II.154, Cornelian) -- source link
