5. The endless cycle of idea and action,
Endless invention, endless experiment,
Brings knowledge of motion, but not of
stillness;
Knowledge of speech, but not of
silence;
Knowledge of words, and ignorance of
the Word.
All our knowledge brings us nearer to
our ignorance…
Where is the Life we have lost in living?
Where is the wisdom we have lost in
knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in
information?

6. What data will we look at today?
The true measure of a nation’s
standing is
how well it attends to its
children – their
health and safety, their material
security,
their education and
socialization, and
their sense of being loved,
valued, and
included in the families and
societies into
which they are born.

7. You have to start with the truth. The
truth is the only way that we can get
anywhere. Because any decision-
making that is based upon lies or
ignorance can't lead to a good
conclusion.
