Bernard: You only need to know things on a need to know basis.
Humphrey: I need to know everything. How else can I judge whether or not I need to know it?
Bernard: So you need to know things, even when you don't need to know them. You need to know them not because you need to know them, but because you need to know whether or not you need to know. And if you don't need to know you still need to know so that you know that there was no need to know.
Humphrey: Yes!

We hold these truths to be self evident…
• Knowledge management is a kind of management
• Knowledge is information which is put to use
• Knowledge management is about how to turn information into value

For all our knowledge, we have no idea what we're talking about. We don't understand what's going on in our business, our market, and our world.
KM shouldn’t be about helping us to know more. It should be about helping us to understand.
So, how do we understand things? It's through stories that we understand how the world works.
