Start with what they know. Build
with what they have. The best of
leaders when the job is done, when
the task is accomplished, the
people will say we have done it
ourselves.
Lao Tzu
Rely on your own strength of body
and soul. Take for your star self-
reliance, faith, honesty and
industry. Don't take too much
advice — keep at the helm and steer
your own ship, and remember that
the great art of commanding is to
take a fair share of the work. Fire
above the mark you intend to hit.
Energy, invincible determination
with the right motive, are the
levers that move the world.
Noah Porter
The ultimate measure of a man is
not where he stands in moments of
comfort, but where he stands at
times of challenge and controversy.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
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.
Publius Syrus
To be a great leader and so always
master of the situation, one must
of necessity have been a great
thinker in action. An eagle was
never yet hatched from a goose's
egg.
James Thomas
No general can fight his battles
alone. He must depend upon his
lieutenants, and his success
depends upon his ability to select
the right man for the right place.
Philip Armour
