The difference, for me, is that neither of those quotes explain why you should value knowledge workers or why employees are valuable (maybe hiring is expensive, maybe turnover reduces morale, etc), nor do they suggest the mechanism that creates this value. I'm sure another author has put the same sentiment out there before, but it's not every day I see such a nice phrasing of it. |

I mean, the point of short quotes is to be memorable and get future listeners to hunt for the reason behind them. "The sun will rise tomorrow" may also be meaningless for some people on its own.
Nothing wrong with elaborating on this subject again via a blog post, I was just pointing out to the commenter who's never heard this expressed before that it has a long history, that's all.
