Quote by Warren Bennis
We have more information now than we can use, and less knowledge and understanding than we need. Indeed, we seem to collect information because we have the ability to do so, but we are so busy collecting it that we haven't devised a means of using it. The true measure of any society is not what it knows but what it does with what it knows.

It suggests that the act of collecting information has become a priority in itself, overshadowing the importance of knowledge and understanding. The quote emphasizes that the value of a society lies not in the quantity of information it possesses, but rather in its ability to apply that information to make meaningful actions and decisions.
