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.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

Time is neutral and does not change things. With courage and initiative, leaders change things.

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

The very exercise of leadership fosters capacity for it.

The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.

Leadership - leadership is about taking responsibility, not making excuses.

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

Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.

The secret of my success is a two word answer: Know people.
