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

The great leaders have always stage-managed their effects.

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

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

The speed of the leader is the speed of the gang.

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

You have no power at all if you do not exercise constant power.

Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.

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 you care enough for a result, you will most certainly attain it.
