I cannot consent to be led three or four hundred leagues out of my route, without its being by force of arms.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you're not the lead, you don't have as many restrictions.
I am not unconscious of the persuasive power exerted by these considerations to drag men along in the current; but I am not at liberty to travel that road.
You can't lead anyone else further than you have gone yourself.
Even when folks are hitting you over the head, you can't stop marching. Even when they're turning the hoses on you, you can't stop.
Everybody wants to be led. Except for me. I want to lead.
I can never consent to being dictated to.
I could always hit the ball really far, but you don't need to be strong to do that.
You can never reach the promised land. You can march towards it.
I believe that I will represent this sport in the best light possible. I won't mess it up. I won't get myself in any trouble.
You know, you can only lead them from behind.
