The great leaders have always stage-managed their effects.

Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves.

No person will make a great business who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit.

The very exercise of leadership fosters capacity for it.

Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton was the one who asked why.

A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.

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

Think little goals and expect little achievements. Think big goals and win big success.

A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.

When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves.'
