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.

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

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

A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.

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

Great companies in the way they work, start with great leaders.

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

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

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