@tararyn: I actually wanted to say that curiosity is (the contrary of a quality).
Curiosity isn't a quality..
Does the verb to flow mean the same?

To flow means to glide through, it is used mostly with water "the river flows". You wouldn't really say "curiosity isn't a quality", I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to say.

Like "curiosity killed the cat"
We should not have curiosity in us as if it was a quality
This kind of sentence
But I understand what you mean
Thank you :)

"Curiosity killed the cat" is just a saying. And it actually continues as "...but satisfaction brought it back." So it means curiosity is a good thing. I guess you could just simply say "Curiosity is a bad quality" or "Curiosity isn't a good quality to have". The word "quality" can be either good or bad so you have to specify. I hope this makes sense!

It makes sense :) thank you
Actually in French, we have an expression which says that "la curiosité est un vilain défaut" which mean that curiosity is a bad thing
Défaut is the contrary of a quality in French
So I thought I could say a similar sentence in English
