John C. Maxwell

The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.          

Jim Rohn

Leaders think and talk about the solutions. Followers think and talk about the problems.          

Brian Tracy

Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise.

John Kenneth Galbraith

There are three essentials to leadership: humility, clarity and courage.          

Fuchan Yuan

Dwight Eisenhower

You manage things; you lead people.          

Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper

A ruler should be slow to punish and swift to reward.          

Ovid

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.
