Getting in touch with your true self must be your first priority.

The great leaders have always stage-managed their effects.

A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

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

I look for what needs to be done. After all, that's how the universe designs itself.

Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.

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

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

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

He who is prudent and lies in wait for an enemy who is not, will be victorious.
