Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.

[notes] the first part suggests that being too curious or prying into things can lead to negative consequences or harm, symbolized by the cat's demise.

However, the second part of the proverb, "satisfaction brought it back," implies that once the cat's curiosity is satisfied or fulfilled, it is revived or restored. This suggests that curiosity, when properly channeled and satisfied, can have positive outcomes and benefits. It's a way of emphasizing the importance of finding a balance between being curious and seeking knowledge while also being cautious and aware of potential risks.
