So much of…..

……. what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to work.

– Peter Drucker

If one is lucky……

…….. a solitary fantasy can totally transform one million realities.

– Maya Angelou

A leader……

…….. you see, is one of the things that distinguishes a mob from a people.

– Frank Herbert

 

People try so hard…….

….. to believe in leaders now, pitifully hard. But we no sooner get a popular reformer or politician or soldier or writer or philosopher — a Roosevelt, a Tolstoy, a Wood, a Shaw, a Nietzsche, than the cross-currents of criticism wash him away. No man can stand prominence these days…..  it is the surest path to obscurity. People get sick of hearing the same name over and over.

– F Scott Fitzgerald

 

Leadership does……

….. not always wear the harness of compromise.

– Woodrow Wilson

The greater a man is ……

…… in power above others, the more he ought to excel them in virtue. None ought to govern who is not better than the governed.

– Publilus Syrus

A cowardly leader……

……. is the most dangerous of men.

– Stephen King

 

When one sheep……

……. leads the way all the rest follow.

– Chinese Proverb

In any moment…..

……. of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.

– Theodore Roosevelt

There is only one…..

real sin and that is to persuade oneself that the second best is anything but second best.

– Doris Lessing
