Quote

Those who cannot think or take responsibility for themselves need, and clamor for, a leader.

A man has to learn that he cannot command things, but that he can command himself; that he cannot coerce the wills of others, but that he can mold and master his own will: and things serve him who serves Truth; people seek guidance of him who is master of himself.

Those who know the least obey the best.

Create like a god, command like a king, work like a slave.

Leaders who are kind of insecure or egocentric, they basically sabotage themselves.

He who wishes to be obeyed must know how to command.

Reason commands us far more imperiously than a master; for in disobeying the one we are unfortunate, and in disobeying the other we are fools.

People in positions of power and privilege have a duty to perform at a higher level. If not them, then who?
