Everything…

… that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.

– Carl Jung

When power leads….

… man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man’s concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his experience. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses. For art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstones of our judgement. The artist. . . faithful to his personal vision of reality, becomes the last champion of the individual mind and sensibility against an intrusive society and an offensive state

– John F. Kennedy

I really…

… believe my greatest service is in the many unwise steps I prevent.

A leader….

… has the vision and conviction that a dream can be achieved.
He inspires the power and energy to get it done.

Most people…

….. use two totally different sets of criteria for judging themselves versus others. We tend to judge others according to their actions. It’s very cut-and-dried. However, we judge ourselves by our intentions. Even if we do the wrong thing, if we believe our motives were good, we let ourselves off the hook. And we are often willing to do that over and over before requiring ourselves to change.

– John C Maxwell

A leader…

… is a person you will follow to a place you wouldn’t go by yourself.

–  Joel A Barker

If I have…

… seen farther than others, it is because I was standing on the shoulder of giants.

– Isaac Newton

Leadership…

… requires the courage to make decisions that will benefit the next generation.

– Alan Autry
