Quotations
Marian Anderson
Leadership should be born out of the understanding of the needs of those who would be affected by it.
Marian Anderson (was an African-American contralto).
Eleanor Roosevelt
To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart.”
Eleanor Roosevelt (was the longest-serving First Lady of the United States.
Scott Berkun
I think leadership comes from integrity – that you do whatever you ask others to do. I think there are non-obvious ways to lead. Just by providing a good example as a parent, a friend, a neighbor makes it possible for other people to see better ways to do things. Leadership does not need to be a dramatic, fist in the air and trumpets blaring, activity.
Scott Berkun (an American author and speaker).
Jim Rohn
The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.
Jim Rohn (an American entrepreneur, author and motivational speaker).
Douglas MacArthur
A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.
Douglas MacArthur (an American general and field marshal of the Philippine Army who was Chief of Staff of the United States Army during the 1930s and played a prominent role in the Pacific theater during World War II).
John C. Maxwell
A good leader is a person who takes a little more than his share of the blame and a little less than his share of the credit.
John C. Maxwell (an evangelical Christian author, speaker, and pastor).
Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

I am not afraid of death, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.
Woody Allen
