Wisdom in print May 17, 2004
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Wisdom is a product of a long years of experience. Quotation is wisdom in print. So what you are now doing is sharing this wisdom to your readers/customers who want to acquire the knowledge but probably are not yet ready to experience it. Quotations are intellectual property -- perhaps, they can be shared with others but not sold.
