5.0 out of 5 stars Wisdom in print, May 17, 2004
By A Customer
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.
