There are two kinds of intelligence: one acquired,as a child in school memorizes facts and conceptsfrom books and from what the teacher says,collecting information from the traditional sciencesAs well as from the new sciences.With such intelligence you rise in the world.You get ranked ahead or behind othersin regard to your competence in retaining information.You stroll with this intelligence in and out of fieldsof knowledge, getting always more marks on your preserving tablets.

There is another kind of tablet, onealready completed and preserved inside you.A spring overflowing its springbox. A freshness in the center of the chest. This other intelligencedoes not turn yellow or stagnate. It’s fluid,and it doesn’t move from outside to insidethrough the conduits of plumbing learning.

This second knowing is a fountainheadfrom within you, moving out.

Mevlana Celaleddin Rûmi (1207 – 1273)

Innovation is a specific instrument of Entrepreneurship. Peter Drucker

If anybody goes traveling without a guide,

every two days’ journey

becomes a journey of a hundred years.

The one who takes up a profession

without having had a teacher

becomes a laughing-stock,

no matter where he lives.
