Making good decisions is a crucial skill at every level.

It is, after all, the responsibility of the expert to operate the familiar and that of the leader to transcend it.

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

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

The very exercise of leadership fosters capacity for it.

Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more you sweat, the luckier you get.

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.

The first man gets the oyster, the second man gets the shell.

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