A leader does not deserve the name unless he is willing occasionally to stand alone.

The quality of a leader is reflected in the standards they set for themselves.

Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody expects of you. Never excuse yourself.

People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision.

A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.

The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.

Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.

How we think shows through in how we act. Attitudes are mirrors of the mind. They reflect thinking.

A man always has two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason.

You have no power at all if you do not exercise constant power.
