Knowledge is so powerful that it can never be taken away or snatched by others. Sharing of knowledge is like a sparkling diamond emitting light all around for others to learn and develop.

Knowledge is power, immense power, almost invincible! A person of knowledge will have a differenet more illuminated look at life. He'll understand life, work, people, things and ideas better than others. His survival mechanism and ability to adapt is sophisticated. Knowledge is power to nations and economies. "Knowledge Economies" will ALWAYS survive the competition of other economies with less developed knowledge advantage, no matter vastly growing, explosively populated and big. Small countries like Finland (Nokia) Sweden (SAAB, Volvo and IKEA), Holland (Shell, ING, Philips, Unilever) who have more numbers of scientists & researchers per capita than other bigger nations are more powerful than those nations (in a relative sense). IBM, Microsoft, Apple, Cisco, Google will always have advantage above others, based on knowledge economy.

Power is defined as the ability to perform or authority to perform and same the platform is for knowledge also.

But yet there is difference between power and knowledge is that power represents the authority and knowledge represent accessablity.

It is absolutely true that Knowledge is power. One can snatch your physical belongings, wealth but cannot steal your knowledge. Even if you don't have money, power you can gain these with the skills you acquired through your knowledge. Knowledge is the one that is driving this world, and it is why you and I are discussing this here in this post..
