About This Quote

If knowledge is not democratized, power can never be. Knowledge should be available to everyone so that anyone can lead a better life. If a handful of people have access to all the knowledge in the world, those few will have great power over those who do not have access to information. That would be unfair, as those without access would have no way of knowing what they are missing out on.
