Video: BLU Lesson 2: We trade our knowledge by David Gurteen

One of six BLU lessons on 'trading knowledge' by David Gurteen.

In April 2005, BLU, the UK's Business Link University which no longer exists hired Fifty Lessons  to produce a series of video stories for them to which I (David Gurteen) was invited to contribute. This is one of those stories.

Quotations are extremely effective at capturing and concisely communicating thoughts and ideas. They can be inspirational but more importantly quotations can help us reveal and assess the assumptions, values and beliefs that underlie the ways in which we perceive the world. I have compiled over 500 quotations and short excerpts on this website. It is an eclectic mix but most of them are inspirational or insightful in nature and relate to knowledge, learning or personal development in some form.

 Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

 It is not given to human beings, happily for them, for otherwise life would be intolerable, to foresee or to predict to any large extent the unfolding course of events.

In one phase men seem to have been right, in another they seem to have been wrong.

Then again, a few years later, when the perspective of time has lengthened, all stands in a different setting.

There is a new proportion. There is another scale of values.

History with its flickering lamp stumbles along the trail of the past, trying to reconstruct its scenes, to revive its echoes, and kindle with pale gleams the passion of former days.
