Theodore C. Sorensen	We have treated our most serious adversaries, such as Iran and North Korea, in the most juvenile manner - by giving them the silent treatment. In so doing, we have weakened, not strengthened, our bargaining position and our leadership.	103
Eric Massa	And this administration and this House leadership have said, quote-unquote, they will stop at nothing to pass this health care bill. And now they've gotten rid of me and it will pass. You connect the dots.	103
Harriet Harman	Actually, I don't ever think there will be a men-only team of leadership in the Labour party again. People would look at it and say, 'What? Are there no women in the party to be part of the leadership? Do men want to do it all themselves?' It just won't happen again.	103
Horst Koehler	Germany must be a country which generates political ideas and leadership, which is capable of compromise, which is sovereign and yet knows that it needs its partners on both sides of the Atlantic.	103
Jim Webb	The function of combat is not merely to perpetrate violence, but to perpetrate violence on command, instantaneously and reflexively. The function of the service academies is to prepare men for leadership positions where they may someday exercise that command.	103
Leonard Slatkin	The conductor is the artistic leader and sometimes cultural arbiter of his or her community. It is their leadership that is looked to and should anything go wrong, they are the persons taking most of the heat.	103
Leymah Gbowee	Leadership is standing with your people. People say you have to live to fight another day, but sometimes you have to show you are a true leader.	103
Atifete Jahjaga	We have to forget the past. History is something that even today we are paying the consequences, and the future is integration. We all as a people, as citizens, as the leadership of both countries should be looking in that direction.	103
Garry Wills	Leadership - mobilization toward a common goal.	103
Kgalema Motlanthe	Once it gets to a point where it becomes a matter of life and death to occupy a position of leadership or not, with an eye on future opportunities, therein lies the danger.	103
Mario Monti	I believe that in Europe, we have a collective leadership.	103
Douglas William Jerrold	The sharp employ the sharp.	103
Michael Oxley	Leadership in telecommunications is also essential, since we are now in the age of e-commerce.	103
Sebastian Pinera	I think the U.S. should assert its leadership in a more effective way.	103
John Buchan	The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.	103
Ronnie Chan	You need strong leadership to effectuate change, and the easiest way is to keep everything status quo. And sometimes changes are necessary. If not, you build up too much potential energy.	103
Susan Faludi	What happened with Hurricane Katrina was the American electorate was forced to look at what lay behind the veneer of chest-beating. We all saw the consequences of having terrible government leadership.	103
Allan Houston	The more consistent a father can be or a mentor can be in the person's life and teach them principles of real solid manhood, character, integrity and leadership, the more consistent you can be in the person's life and teach them those things at a younger age, and then the better off they'll be.	103
Audrey Meadows	I've always voted Republican because America is exactly that, a republic. You can't expect much leadership with a Democrat behind the desk their not even close to dual efficient.	103
Matt Cartwright	The federal government needs a strategic approach that includes strong leadership and the ability to manage weather related risks. The challenge of developing such an approach is complex: It must not only encompass all levels of government but must also be developed in a bipartisan manner.	103
Sultan bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud	With King Abdullah's leadership and his people's trust he can keep the kingdom stable and secure in all its affairs.	103
An Wang	You have to have your heart in the business and the business in your heart.	103
Andreas Schleicher	Despite the characterization of some that teaching is an easy job, with short hours and summers off, the fact is that successful, dedicated teachers in the U.S. work long hours for little pay and, in many cases, insufficient support from their leadership.	103
Jerrold Nadler	We have to go to war against the people who enable the gun violence, the people who stop us from keeping guns out of the hands of mentally unstable people, of felons, and that means the NRA leadership.	103
Margaret Hamburg	I've been a medical and public health professional as well as a mother. I became skilled at juggling a number of priorities and competing interests. Like many other female leaders, I've tried to serve as a role model for the young women at my organization who are trying to balance a high-level leadership position and a family.	103
Jakaya Kikwete	If people want to get into leadership through corrupt practices, through corrupt means, I think that's detestable; we have to take action.	103
James Humes	One secret of leadership is that the mind of a leader never turns off. Leaders even when they are sightseers or spectators, are active; not passive observers.	103
Joe Donnelly	I supported my friend Congressman Shuler over former Speaker Nancy Pelosi during our party's leadership elections in November citing a need for new leadership.	103
John Raleigh Mott	There is an irresistible demand to strengthen the leadership of the constructive forces of the world at the present momentous time. This is true because of stupendous, almost unbelievable changes which have taken place in recent years on every continent.	103
John F. Kennedy	Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.	104
Colin Powell	Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.	104
Norman Schwarzkopf	Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.	104
Aristotle Onassis	To succeed in business it is necessary to make others see things as you see them.	104
Buzz Aldrin	Globalisation means many other countries are asserting themselves and trying to take over leadership. Please don't ask Americans to let others assume the leadership of human exploration. We can do wonderful science on the Moon, and wonderful commercial things. Then we can pack up and move on to Mars.	104
Davy Crockett	I have always supported measures and principles and not men.	104
George Soros	We must recognize that as the dominant power in the world we have a special responsibility. In addition to protecting our national interests, we must take the leadership in protecting the common interests of humanity.	104
Irene Rosenfeld	Our emerging workforce is not interested in command-and-control leadership. They don't want to do things because I said so; they want to do things because they want to do them.	104
Mike Pompeo	There's no doubt West Point impacted who I am... It has an enormous emphasis, not only on military aspects, but character development. Whether it's the honor code, or the interactions you have, both with the cadet leadership and the academy leadership, every place you are is a character test.	104
Nolan Bushnell	Everyone who's ever taken a shower has an idea. It's the person who gets out of the shower, dries off and does something about it who makes a difference.	104
Sam Walton	High expectations are the key to everything.	104
Virginia Foxx	From a parent's right to know what their children are doing, to protecting citizens across the country from the growing threat of gang violence, the House Democrat leadership is simply out to lunch.	104
Yitzhak Shamir	I believe that the will of the people is resolved by a strong leadership. Even in a democratic society, events depend on a strong leadership with a strong power of persuasion, and not on the opinion of the masses.	104
Daley Thompson	Sport fosters many things that are good; teamwork and leadership.	104
Daniel Defoe	It is better to have a lion at the head of an army of sheep, than a sheep at the head of an army of lions.	104
David Joseph Schwartz	Think little goals and expect little achievements. Think big goals and win big success.	104
Earl Browder	I knew I could not maintain that leadership in open struggle against Moscow influence. Only two Communist leaders in history ever succeeded in doing this - Tito and Mao Tse-tung.	104
Eric Shinseki	I have spent a lifetime watching kids make mistakes because they were not trained or well led or properly motivated to do well. I never faulted the kids; rather, I saw opportunity to train, to motivate, to improve leadership - not to punish the individual.	104
Lindsey Graham	President Obama chose politics over leadership. 'Hope' and 'Change' have become bait-and-switch.	104
Max de Pree	The signs of outstanding leadership appear primarily among the followers. Are the followers reaching their potential? Are they learning? Serving? Do they achieve the required results? Do they change with grace? Manage conflict?	104
Bob Ehrlich	Leadership is about doing what you know is right - even when a growing din of voices around you is trying to convince you to accept what you know to be wrong.	104
Jim Yong Kim	One of the most important things about leadership is that you have to have the kind of humility that will allow you to be coached.	104
Kamla Persad-Bissessar	As a woman, my style defines my leadership. It's a gentler, more compassionate approach. I consult, I listen and I compromise where it's in the best interest of the citizens.	104
Kenneth Chenault	At the end the day because I believe so strongly in leadership, what I look for first, what I try to assess, is integrity.	104
Mike DeWine	To be elected president, you have to do more than tear down your opponents. You have to give the American people a reason to vote for you - a reason to hope - a reason to believe that under your leadership, America will be better.	104
Heather Bresch	I'd like to believe that achieving a leadership position is all about competency, capability and ambition, so I try not to distinguish between the sexes when it comes to giving career advice.	104
Phil LaMarr	Say what you will about the leadership of 'SNL,' they have crafted an institution as opposed to just running a show. I don't think that's by accident.	104
Ron Kind	We should see the leadership from the White House setting dates certain for certain goals of achieving greater alliance on alternative and renewable energy sources, but we are not.	104
Ruth J. Simmons	It's very important in a leadership role not to place your ego at the foreground and not to judge everything in relationship to how your ego is fed.	104
Chris Patten	But the ability to articulate what you are doing, to be clear about it, and to stick to it is, I think, the essence of political leadership.	104
Stefan Zweig	One must be convinced to convince, to have enthusiasm to stimulate the others.	104
Carl Weathers	I've made some films for the military that are teaching things like cultural awareness and leadership issues, that sort of stuff. And try to, in essence, look at what training they're doing and say, 'This is how you can improve the training from a humanistic point of view.'	104
Danny Danon	When we see a lack of leadership coming from the White House, that's what brings leaders in Turkey to attack Israel the way they do. When we see a lack of leadership coming from the White House, that's why we see the leader of Iran... continuing to build the nuclear reactors.	104
Jim Cooper	I think the job of leadership is to expand what can be talked about and to get consensus on the nature of the problem, and that is most of the job. Because once you do that, once you have diagnosis, treatment options are obvious.	104
James MacGregor Burns	Woodrow Wilson called for leaders who, by boldly interpreting the nation's conscience, could lift a people out of their everyday selves. That people can be lifted into their better selves is the secret of transforming leadership.	104
Matt Holliday	I try to work hard. I try to set a good example. I don't look at it as though I've got to be a leader. I just try to behave the way I think I should behave. If that results in a leadership role, great.	104
John W. Rogers, Jr.	My mom was the first African-American woman to graduate from the University of Chicago Law School, in 1946. She had leadership roles in the law, in government and the corporate world. She was a great role model in that she felt anything was possible.	104
Norman Schwarzkopf	When placed in command, take charge.	105
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie	If I were not African, I wonder whether it would be clear to me that Africa is a place where the people do not need limp gifts of fish but sturdy fishing rods and fair access to the pond. I wonder whether I would realize that while African nations have a failure of leadership, they also have dynamic people with agency and voices.	105
Ferdinand Marcos	Leadership is the other side of the coin of loneliness, and he who is a leader must always act alone. And acting alone, accept everything alone.	105
Harvey S. Firestone	If you have ideas, you have the main asset you need, and there isn't any limit to what you can do with your business and your life. Ideas are any man's greatest asset.	105
Howard Schultz	I think the currency of leadership is transparency. You've got to be truthful. I don't think you should be vulnerable every day, but there are moments where you've got to share your soul and conscience with people and show them who you are, and not be afraid of it.	105
Isaiah Thomas	The biggest difference is in the leadership. It was better for us. We had more coaches and mentors to help us. A lot of the younger players today suffer from a lack of direction.	105
Ken Blanchard	The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.	105
Leo Burnett	What helps people, helps business.	105
Margaret Fuller	Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.	105
Mike Huckabee	I think America is in trouble, but it's not beyond repair. But it's going to take leadership who sees the greatness of this country and who believes that, once again, we can be one nation under God.	105
Peter Pace	Intelligence we gathered at the time indicated that this was in fact leadership and we struck the leadership.	105
Rahm Emanuel	While Mayor Daley surprised me today with his decision to not run for reelection, I have never been surprised by his leadership, dedication and tireless work on behalf of the city and the people of Chicago.	105
Russell Wilson	I think to be a great quarterback, you have to have a great leadership, great attention to detail, and a relentless competitive nature. And that's what I try to bring to the table, and I have a long way to go. I'm still learning, and I'm still on a constant quest for knowledge.	105
Shiv Khera	There are good leaders who actively guide and bad leaders who actively misguide. Hence, leadership is about persuasion, presentation and people skills.	105
Tom Landry	Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you're in control, they're in control.	105
Zhang Ziyi	The atmosphere at my school was very competitive. Young girls were competing with each other every day for status, for leadership, for the affection of the teachers. I hated it.	105
Andy Stanley	Uncertainty is a permanent part of the leadership landscape. It never goes away.	105
Bing Gordon	Even as an 18-year-old, I had to grow comfortable with my leadership style, which is that I was really impatient with under-motivated people - extremely impatient, to the point where I was counterproductive as a manager of underproductive people. And that hasn't really changed. If people need to be motivated, I'm no good.	105
Chuck Hagel	Alliances and international organizations should be understood as opportunities for leadership and a means to expand our influence, not as constraints on our power.	105
Franz von Papen	Party domination and State leadership are concepts incompatible with one another.	105
Harvey Gantt	John Edwards makes us all proud to be Americans, and those of us from North Carolina are even more proud to claim him, for he represents the best that we can offer America at a time when strong, positive leadership is needed.	105
Kay Bailey Hutchison	Our country also hungers for leadership to ensure the long-term survival of our Social Security system. With 70 million baby boomers in this country on the verge of retirement, we need to take action to shore up the system.	105
Nguyen Cao Ky	Through leadership of the fight against French colonialism, Ho Chi Minh had made a name for himself in the international political arena.	105
Penny Pritzker	I grew up in a household that revered building businesses. It wasn't thinking about leadership; it was more about building something. To build something, you ultimately have to lead.	105
Tim Pawlenty	One of the things about leadership is that you've got to show up. And if you want to be president of the United States you've got to make a case to the American people that Barack Obama needs to be dismissed from his position.	105
Bob Ainsworth	Despite the increasingly presidential style of political leadership in our country, teamwork is essential.	105
Tony Fernandes	Good leadership is to know when to go, and you only succeed as a good leader if you've transported someone else in and the company gets stronger. Then you've succeeded as leader.	105
David M. Kelley	The way I would measure leadership is this: of the people that are working with me, how many wake up in the morning thinking that the company is theirs?	105
Ed Case	The sentiments in Hawaii about Washington's failure of leadership are no different than the rest of the country.	105
Laura Lang	Digitas is a company that's very rapidly changing - the digital world changes every day. It's important we hire people who are curious about what's going on and who are willing to learn and want to learn. I look for core leadership traits.	105
Louis R. Chenevert	Goodrich is a perfect addition to our Hamilton Sundstrand business. And with a strong portfolio of complementary products, Goodrich also brought great leadership balance, great opportunities to provide more integrated systems.	105
Mo Rocca	I wish I had played team sports. I think every kid should. Teamwork builds character - teaches people about leadership and cooperation.	105
Tom Lantos	The Chinese leadership hoped that the world would soon forget the Tiananmen Square massacre. Our job in Congress is to ensure that we never forget those who lost their lives in Tiananmen Square that day or the pro-democracy cause for which they fought.	105
Andy Hertzfeld	But I think Steve's main contribution besides just the pure leadership is his passion for excellence. He's a perfectionist. Good enough isn't good enough. And also his creative spirit. You know he really, really wants to do something great.	105
Cofer Black	Al Qaeda is not the organization now that it was before. It is under stress organizationally. Its leadership spends more time trying to figure out how to keep from getting caught than they do trying to launch operations.	105
Dalton McGuinty	I made a commitment... both to myself and to some supporters to carefully consider a run for the Liberal leadership for the Liberal Party of Canada.	105
Sonny Perdue	My philosophy of leadership is to surround myself with good people who have ability, judgment and knowledge, but above all, a passion for service.	105
Marc Morial	This - the leadership of the mayor is crucial, because it is to the mayor that people will look to provide the vision, the energy, and the sense of confidence in the rebuilding and the recovery.	105
Jakaya Kikwete	We design our own programmes; we take leadership. Of course the donors come in to support us, to complement our efforts. Our responsibility to the donors is about accountability: about how we use that money. If somebody gives you his money, definitely he will be interested in knowing how you spend the money.	105
James Forrestal	By providing outstanding economic leadership, this country can wage its attack successfully - and can thereby build the foundations of a peaceful world.	105
James Freeman Clarke	Strong convictions precede great actions.	105
John Patrick	IBM has taken a leadership role in this area and is prepared to be a technology partner with companies around the world to take advantage of these new developments.	105
Steve Jobs	Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.	106
Kofi Annan	I urge the Iraqi leadership for sake of its own people... to seize this opportunity and thereby begin to end the isolation and suffering of the Iraqi people.	106
Arnold H. Glasow	One of the tests of leadership is the ability to recognize a problem before it becomes an emergency.	106
Bob Iger	What I've really learned over time is that optimism is a very, very important part of leadership.	106
Earl Monroe	Jamal Crawford reminds me the most of myself, the way he goes to the basket. But they need leadership.	106
Ibrahim Babangida	Each one of us, and, indeed, all those who aspire to national leadership must bring their own visions, views and styles to the business of reforming Nigeria, and the search for solutions.	106
Omar N. Bradley	Leadership is intangible, and therefore no weapon ever designed can replace it.	106
Robin S. Sharma	Leadership is not a popularity contest; it's about leaving your ego at the door. The name of the game is to lead without a title.	106
Simon Mainwaring	Many corporate leaders and employees have the right intentions, but it can be overwhelming when you consider how everything is affected from leadership styles, to organizational structure, to employee engagement, to customer service an marketplace.	106
Vernon Jordan	I had a sense of what leadership meant and what it could do for you. So am I surprised that I am sitting up here on the 62nd floor of Rockefeller Plaza? No.	106
Victor Koo	On the monetization front, our strengthening leadership in internet user base and broadening reach of our platform have already positioned us as a must-buy platform in online video for brand advertisers to reach a nationwide audience within China.	106
Yingluck Shinawatra	In terms of the principles of politics, I think I understand well. Thailand needs someone who has leadership, who has the management skills to help the country.	106
Allen West	Leadership is about being a servant first.	106
Chip Conley	At the heart of great leadership is a curious mind, heart, and spirit.	106
E. Joseph Cossman	Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves.	106
Ehud Barak	Leadership can change its mind; leadership can open its eye. Leadership can even be replaced.	106
Francis Maude	I feel fantastically excited that we have a leader who fought for the leadership without compromising his quite challenging view that the party has to change.	106
Katori Hall	We expect our leaders to be godlike. But I feel that when people try to sanctify leadership, it puts it out of the realm of regular people. And that's where the greatest leaders come from - from the people.	106
Paul Coffey	Leadership is one of sports' intangibles. Guys can score, guys can fight, guys can skate faster than anybody else. But not everybody can say, 'Follow me.'	106
Ron Fournier	Washington's answer to a self-inflicted financial crisis reminded Americans why they so deeply distrust the political class. The 'fiscal cliff' process was secretive and sloppy, and the nation's so-called leadership lacked the political courage to address our root problems: joblessness and debt.	106
Sebastian Coe	Inspirational leaders need to have a winning mentality in order to inspire respect. It is hard to trust in the leadership of someone who is half-hearted about their purpose, or only sporadic in focus or enthusiasm.	106
Tom Graves	I vote my conscience first and my constituents next, regardless of the direction of our leadership.	106
Wilson Greatbatch	We need the kind of leadership exemplified by President Kennedy to just do it! But we must do it as good stewards, aggressively exerting control over the moon. We can best do this by going there.	106
Andrew Luck	I think leadership is most effective when it's your own personality. But I feel like it's a natural progression as a quarterback, as well.	106
David Herbert Donald	The more I have studied Lincoln, the more I have followed his thought processes, the more I am convinced that he understood leadership better than any other American president.	106
Elizabeth Emken	When you look at a Congress that has an 84 percent disapproval rating, that means that for the most part, the people of this country, and certainly California, are looking for new leadership.	106
Eric Massa	I am leaving because I have to fight simultaneously a potential recurrence of cancer the Democratic leadership, a health care bill that's going to destroy this country, my opposition to it and a belief that my party has become what it became - what it campaigned against.	106
James Stockdale	He's a novice, but he's had these - he's experienced in leadership in tight circumstances. He started - he dropped the first bomb, led the first air strike into North Vietnam.	106
Julia Stiles	Even after such milestones as Kathryn Bigelow winning an Oscar, there still seem to be few women in leadership roles.	106
Kendrick Meek	Studies have consistently shown that financial hardship is the biggest obstacle to heterosexual marriage, yet the Republican leadership has done precious little to help address the financial hardship faced by American families.	106
Robert Teeter	This is easy to say with the benefit of hindsight, but I think it once again points out how very important style of leadership, that is the way he does what he does, is to his perception.	106
Arthur Scargill	The trouble with the Labour Party leadership and the trade union leadership, they're quite willing to applaud millions on the streets of the Philippines or in Eastern Europe, without understanding the need to also produce millions of people on the streets of Britain.	106
Artur Davis	We have a country to turn around. This week you will nominate the most experienced executive to seek the presidency in 60 years in Mitt Romney. He has no illusions about what makes America great, and he doesn't confuse the presidency with celebrity, or loftiness with leadership.	106
Tulsi Gabbard	In the military, I learned that 'leadership' means raising your hand and volunteering for the tough, important assignments.	106
Don Tapscott	Leadership is happening, but it's not coming from the leaders of the old institutions. Everywhere you look, you see these extraordinary, sparkling new initiatives that are under way.	106
Alexis Herman	The public sector certainly includes the Department of Labor. Those are jobs that are available. They are open and they are good paying jobs. The government as a whole has been actually retrenching under President Clinton's leadership.	106
Daniel Inouye	The President's speech suggested to me that were we to follow his leadership, we will be in Iraq not for months, but for years. I also hope I am wrong on this.	106
Junior Seau	Leadership can't be fabricated. If it is fabricated and rehearsed, you can't fool the guys in the locker room. So when you talk about leadership, it comes with performance. Leadership comes with consistency.	106
Richard Foster	There is a sense of call to take leadership roles. You're serving people and submitting to God as best you can.	106
Joe Miller	I believe that it is irresponsible, it is basically part of the crisis of leadership in D.C. to not look at Social Security and understand that there has got to be a solution posed. We've got to take a look at it and make sure that we create a solution so our seniors aren't left out in the cold.	106
Joe Heck	The House has passed several bipartisan bills to ensure all Americans have the opportunity to secure a good job to provide for their families. All of these jobs bills deserve the support of our Senators and a strong show of leadership from the president.	106
Joseph Nye	Leadership experts and the public alike extol the virtues of transformational leaders - those who set out bold objectives and take risks to change the world. We tend to downplay 'transactional' leaders, whose goals are more modest, as mere managers.	106
Nelson Mandela	It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.	107
Henry Ford	If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.	107
Benazir Bhutto	As a woman leader, I thought I brought a different kind of leadership. I was interested in women's issues, in bringing down the population growth rate... as a woman, I entered politics with an additional dimension - that of a mother.	107
Bernard Baruch	Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton was the one who asked why.	107
Beth Brooke	We all know business financial performance improves when more women are in senior levels of management and leadership.	107
Gerry Adams	At that time, the army leadership said the implementation of this agreement would allow everyone, including the IRA, to take its political objectives forward by peaceful and democratic means.	107
J. P. Morgan	A man always has two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason.	107
Mitt Romney	Leadership - leadership is about taking responsibility, not making excuses.	107
Oliver North	There's the assumption being made by the national security advisers to the Obama administration that the North Korean leadership is not suicidal, that they know they will be obliterated if they attacked the United States. But I would point that everything in South Korea and Japan is well within range of what they might want to do.	107
Wendy Kopp	In the long run, we need to build a leadership force of people. We have a whole strategy around not only providing folks with the foundational experience during their two years with us, but also then accelerating their leadership in ways that is strategic for the broader education reform movement.	107
William Pollard	It is the responsibility of leadership to provide opportunity, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute.	107
Chip Conley	When the world is in the midst of change, when adversity and opportunity are almost indistinguishable, this is the time for visionary leadership and when leaders need to look beyond the survival needs of those they're serving.	107
Frank R. Wolf	Having served in the Nixon Administration, I am well aware of how the political leadership of an administration can try to politicize the civil service, including law enforcement.	107
Keith Henson	As for leadership, I am the kind who leads reluctantly and more by example than anything else. Someone had to be on the incorporation papers as president.	107
Marcia Fudge	We are at a point in our nation's history when the right leadership is needed more than ever. Hillary has spent her life advocating for poor and working class families. Hillary will help build an economy for tomorrow and beyond; strengthen America's families; defend our country and its core values; and revitalize our democracy.	107
Patrick J. Kennedy	Moreover, as the leadership of the House confirmed last year, the Administration remains opposed to a congressional resolution on the Armenian Genocide due to Turkish objections. This approach sends absolutely the wrong signal to Turkey and to the rest of the world.	107
Seth Berkley	Leadership is about vision and responsibility, not power.	107
Elizabeth Thornton	To be an objective leader means aligning your models with the needs of the organization. There is no question anymore that collaboration, seeking out diverse perspectives and developing new ways to look at challenges and opportunities, is a key leadership competency.	107
Jim Webb	I learned long ago on the battlefields of Vietnam that in a crisis, there is no substitute for clear-eyed leadership.	107
Kenneth Chenault	What's increasingly clear is that when you are open to a discussion of leadership, and you're relating it to your company, it is much easier to get people to become open.	107
Robert M. Gates	Well, I've ruffled a few feathers at all the institutions I've led. But I think that's part of leadership.	107
Joyce Banda	I learned that leadership is about falling in love with the people and the people falling in love with you. It is about serving the people with selflessness, with sacrifice, and with the need to put the common good ahead of personal interests.	107
Kurt Bills	The young people I teach now know they are being sold down the river before we even start studying the trends and numbers. That's the toughest part of being a high school economics teacher... being a witness when our children realize that the greatest deficit of all is a deficit of leadership.	107
Jeff Bingaman	The United States is the most innovative country in the world. But our leadership could slip away if we fail to properly fund primary, secondary and higher education.	107
Scott Brown	For many members of Congress, the time for choosing is near - do what the party leadership demands, or do what the people have asked you to do. If my colleagues don't mind some advice from a newcomer, I'd suggest going with the will of the people.	107
Jon Kyl	Real leadership means tackling tough problems ourselves and not leaving them to our children.	107
Jimmy Reid	Arthur Scargill's leadership of the miners' strike has been a disgrace. The price to be paid for his folly will be immense. He will have destroyed the N.U.M. as an effective fighting force within British trade unionism for the next 20 years. If kamikaze pilots were to form their own union, Arthur would be an ideal choice for leader.	107
Theodore Roosevelt	Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.	108
Dwight D. Eisenhower	You don't lead by hitting people over the head - that's assault, not leadership.	108
George W. Bush	Leadership to me means duty, honor, country. It means character, and it means listening from time to time.	108
Andrew Carnegie	No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit for doing it.	108
Mao Zedong	The cardinal responsibility of leadership is to identify the dominant contradiction at each point of the historical process and to work out a central line to resolve it.	108
Paul Hawken	We're trained to see the world in terms of charismatic organizations and charismatic people. That's who we look to for leadership and change, for transformation. We're awaiting the next J.F.K., the next Martin Luther King, the next Gandhi, the next Nelson Mandela.	108
Peter T. King	Ted Cruz may be an intelligent person, but he doesn't carry out an intelligent debate. He oversimplifies, he exaggerates, and he basically led the Republican Party over the cliff in the fall of 2013. He has shown no qualifications, no legislation being passed, doesn't provide leadership, and he has no real experience.	108
Robin S. Sharma	A leadership culture is one where everyone thinks like an owner, a CEO or a managing director. It's one where everyone is entrepreneurial and proactive.	108
Rosa Luxemburg	The more that social democracy develops, grows, and becomes stronger, the more the enlightened masses of workers will take their own destinies, the leadership of their movement, and the determination of its direction into their own hands.	108
Russel Honore	Leadership means forming a team and working toward common objectives that are tied to time, metrics, and resources.	108
Tony Blair	The art of leadership is saying no, not saying yes. It is very easy to say yes.	108
Bill Owens	Actions, not words, are the ultimate results of leadership.	108
Frederick W. Smith	My four years in the Marine Corps left me with an indelible understanding of the value of leadership skills.	108
Helene D. Gayle	A big part of leadership is just being comfortable with the fact that some decisions really are only yours.	108
Kamisese Mara	It is with obedience to your call that I take up the burden of government leadership for the final time.	108
Neil Sheehan	We had a military and political leadership at that period which was genuinely deluded.	108
Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala	Women account for about 70% of Africa's food production and manage a large proportion of small enterprises. They are also increasingly represented in legislative and executive leadership positions.	108
Chesty Puller	If you want to get the most out of your men, give them a break! Don't make them work completely in the dark. If you do, they won't do a bit more than they have to. But if they comprehend, they'll work like mad.	108
Gautam Gambhir	I think a captain is someone who captains on the cricket field but, most of the leadership that happens is off the cricket field. It's very easy to captain people on the cricket field, but if you can start leading them off the cricket field, and show them that trust, what you have in them.	108
Robert Teeter	Many citizens see all the leadership of these large institutions together in a conspiracy against them rather than in any adversary relationship with each other.	108
Thomas Menino	Preparing our city to achieve its destiny will require strong leadership.	108
Artur Davis	This week you will nominate the most experienced executive to seek the presidency in 60 years in Mitt Romney. He has no illusions about what makes America great, and he doesn't confuse the presidency with celebrity, or loftiness with leadership.	108
Bill Kristol	In any case, decisions on troop levels in the American system of government are not made by any general or set of generals but by the civilian leadership of the war effort.	108
Mildred S. Dresselhaus	All the leadership positions that I have had have one common denominator: none has required that I give up my science work.	108
John Thune	I think that all areas of the budget have to be scrubbed. Clearly the entitlement issues have to be reformed and that's an issue that's going to require I think some strong bipartisan cooperation and leadership.	108
Scott Howell	At IBM, if we kept our same leadership for 36 years, we'd be bankrupt.	108
C. J. Mahaney	Over the years, I have studied church history as well as the contemporary church, and I noticed how rare it is for a God-glorifying transition of leadership to take place in a local church.	108
Mark Teixeira	As much as you don't like disciplining your kids, you have to sometimes. Kids want that structure, that leadership, that guidance. I think that's what I try to give my children.	108
Matt Cartwright	In my view, it is important that our national government exercise leadership to improve the resiliency of the entire nation in the face of continuing extreme weather.	108
Jackie Stewart	It takes leadership to improve safety. And I started off the movement in my time, but the person who has done more over the past 20 to 30 years and who has led it is Professor Sid Watkins.	108
J. Donald Walters	Leadership is an opportunity to serve. It is not a trumpet call to self-importance.	108
Lao Tzu	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.	109
Steve Jobs	Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.	109
Henry A. Kissinger	The task of the leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been.	109
John C. Maxwell	Leaders must be close enough to relate to others, but far enough ahead to motivate them.	109
Peter Drucker	Effective leadership is not about making speeches or being liked; leadership is defined by results not attributes.	109
Vaclav Havel	The exercise of power is determined by thousands of interactions between the world of the powerful and that of the powerless, all the more so because these worlds are never divided by a sharp line: everyone has a small part of himself in both.	109
Carlos Ghosn	The role of leadership is to transform the complex situation into small pieces and prioritize them.	109
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	We've been sitting at the compromise table for a long time. We're just waiting for that cold chair to be warmed up by the Republican leadership. They still have time to do the right thing and be responsible. They just seem to be moving further and further away from it.	109
Don Shula	I don't know any other way to lead but by example.	109
Harvey S. Firestone	The growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership.	109
J. Paul Getty	The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.	109
John P. Kotter	Because management deals mostly with the status quo and leadership deals mostly with change, in the next century we are going to have to try to become much more skilled at creating leaders.	109
Robin S. Sharma	Showing leadership doesn't mean every employee will run the organization; that would lead to chaos. Businesses do need someone to set the vision and then lead the team to it.	109
Zainab Salbi	Leadership is about encouraging women to break their silence and tell their stories to the world.	109
Zbigniew Brzezinski	I think it is important to ask ourselves as citizens, not as Democrats attacking the administration, but as citizens, whether a world power can really provide global leadership on the basis of fear and anxiety?	109
Andy Stanley	Leadership is all about taking people on a journey. The challenge is that most of the time, we are asking people to follow us to places we ourselves have never been.	109
Frederick W. Smith	Leadership is simply the ability of an individual to coalesce the efforts of other individuals toward achieving common goals. It boils down to looking after your people and ensuring that, from top to bottom, everyone feels part of the team.	109
Henry Mintzberg	This obsession with leadership... It's not neutral; it's American, this idea of the heroic leader who comes in on a white horse to save the day. I think it's killing American companies.	109
James Cash Penney	Honor bespeaks worth. Confidence begets trust. Service brings satisfaction. Cooperation proves the quality of leadership.	109
Michael D. Higgins	Through the inspiration of Vaclav's words, the courage of his dissidence and the integrity of his leadership, Czechoslovakia successfully transitioned from an authoritarian state to a free democracy at the heart of Europe.	109
Neil Sheehan	World War II had been such a tremendous success story for this country that the political and military leadership began to assume that they would prevail simply because of who they were. We were like the British at the turn of the 19th century.	109
Bob Ehrlich	I don't know what leadership is. You can't touch it. You can't feel it. It's not tangible. But I do know this: you recognize it when you see it.	109
C. L. R. James	One of the surest signs of the estimated changes in the consciousness of the American proletariat is to be found in the character of the demands now being put forward by the leadership.	109
Gary Wolf	The intersection of political analysis and Internet theory is a busy crossroad of cliche, where familiar rhetorical vehicles - decentralized authority, emergent leadership, empowered grass roots - create a ceaseless buzz.	109
Pete du Pont	There's a very big gulf between the black civil rights leadership in America and the black middle class in America. The black middle class are conservative. Many of those minorities can be persuaded to be members of the Republican Party.	109
Robert M. Gates	There is no international problem that can be addressed or solved without the engagement and leadership of the United States and everybody in the world knows that, its just fact of life. So sometimes I think we could conduct ourselves with a little more humility.	109
Andy Stern	The union is much more than me, and when you think the union is you and it's not about who you represent, I think you've sort of lost your morals and focus and the purpose of your leadership.	109
Carol Bellamy	In working with UNICEF our corporate partners have demonstrated time and again that their financial resources, leadership and expertise can bring about real and lasting benefits for the world's children.	109
E. P. Thompson	I don't care tuppence whether I'm forced into a leadership position or not. I'd much sooner not.	109
Jared Goff	I think I can bring tremendous leadership.	109
Major Owens	You have no power at all if you do not exercise constant power.	109
Alan Autry	Leadership demands that we make tough choices.	109
John Thune	I think that if Republicans are given the reins of leadership in the House or Senate or both, we will have to govern in a way - at least put forward solutions whether or not the president goes along with them or not, that deal with these long-term challenges.	109
Mangosuthu Buthelezi	Clearly you need a new team to go out to bat on your behalf; to fight for your rights and to report back to you personally and to the leadership of the IFP.	109
Julia Louis-Dreyfus	The war and terrorism in the Middle East, the crisis of leadership in many of the oil-supply countries in the developing world, the crisis of global warming - all these are very clearly tied to energy.	109
Jose Serrano	Under the leadership of this President, the state of the union is not strong. We are being pulled apart rather than pulling together. Our democracy is suffering from the choices being made, and yet we are offered the same tired excuses and unrealistic analyses.	109
Henry A. Kissinger	It is, after all, the responsibility of the expert to operate the familiar and that of the leader to transcend it.	110
W. Clement Stone	Be careful the environment you choose for it will shape you; be careful the friends you choose for you will become like them.	110
George Will	Leadership is, among other things, the ability to inflict pain and get away with it - short-term pain for long-term gain.	110
Harvey Mackay	Pay attention to those employees who respectfully ask why. They are demonstrating an interest in their jobs and exhibiting a curiosity that could eventually translate into leadership ability.	110
John Kenneth Galbraith	All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.	110
Leila Janah	True leadership isn't about having an idea. It's about having an idea and recruiting other people to execute on this vision.	110
Monica Crowley	When the world lacks muscular and wise American leadership, it devolves into total chaos, which, in turn, produces unspeakable evils.	110
Olympia Snowe	At an unprecedented time with the worst attack ever on our soil, our President displayed extraordinary determination, leadership and resolve when history was thrust upon him and the United States.	110
Peter Pace	There has not yet been a major ground offensive battle... There are, we know, negotiations going on between the opposition forces and the Taliban leadership for surrender.	110
Zbigniew Brzezinski	We should be therefore supporting a larger Europe, and in so doing we should strive to expand the zone of peace and prosperity in the world which is the necessary foundation for a stable international system in which our leadership could be fruitfully exercised.	110
Jeffrey Gitomer	Management's job is to convey leadership's message in a compelling and inspiring way. Not just in meetings, but also by example.	110
Randi Weingarten	Teaching is a profession in which capacity building should occur at every stage of the career - novices working with accomplished colleagues, skillful teachers sharing their craft, and opportunities for teacher leadership.	110
Sidney Sheldon	The Dalai Lama. He is a very wise man of great inner peace who believes that happiness is the purpose of our lives. Through his teachings and leadership, he continues to make this world a better place in which to live.	110
Gautam Gambhir	I've always maintained - a captain is only as good as his team. It is not about my leadership, it is not about me.	110
Robert Teeter	Research has shown that the perceived style of leadership is by far the most important thing to most voters in evaluating officeholders and candidates.	110
Bill Kristol	Shouldn't Democrats insist that Sen. Durbin step down as their whip, the number two man in their leadership?	110
Charles Williams	The Divine Thing that made itself the foundation of the Church does not seem, to judge by his comments on the religious leadership of his day, to have hoped much from officers of a church.	110
Henry Ford	Don't find fault, find a remedy.	111
Andy Grove	Leaders have to act more quickly today. The pressure comes much faster.	111
Condoleezza Rice	We needed to go back on the offense and offer clear leadership on Iraq.	111
Edward Kennedy	There was no imminent threat. This was made up in Texas, announced in January to the Republican leadership that war was going to take place and was going to be good politically. This whole thing was a fraud.	111
Gerry Adams	Sinn Fein has demonstrated the ability to play a leadership role as part of a popular movement towards peace, equality and justice.	111
Kevin Rollins	There would not be enough talent that's educated, developed and ready to take on the next leadership challenge, and it would cap our growth. Now we've put programs in place not to have that happen, but that could be a weakness.	111
N. R. Narayana Murthy	Mahatma Gandhi was someone who demonstrated the tremendous power of leadership by example.	111
Richard Engel	We know that al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has some very dangerous, very important leaders who are tied directly to the top leadership of al Qaeda central, including a man who was formerly Osama bin Laden's secretary.	111
Thomas Fuller	If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.	111
Tom Cotton	Unlike President Obama, I would say that I support the long-standing bipartisan post-war belief that American global strength and leadership secures our national-security interests, and it also promotes order and stability in the world. And it gives us immense influence in the world and deters our adversaries and reassures our allies.	111
Angela Ahrendts	I am not in favour of quotas. Just put the best person into the job. It is not about gender; it is about experience, leadership and vision.	111
Anne M. Mulcahy	Turnaround or growth, it's getting your people focused on the goal that is still the job of leadership.	111
Don Yaeger	In the end, leadership comes down to consistency and strong, confident action upon which the team can rely - and this doesn't mean imposing a bunch of rules.	111
Donald Evans	At the very outset I want to say how the people of America appreciate the steadfast support of the people of Morocco, the leadership of Morocco in our war against terrorism.	111
John Sherman Cooper	The intelligence investigation under the leadership of Senator Church, which I know has helped cause this investigation by you, points out that the agencies did not disclose certain facts to us and that certain plots were going on.	111
Kay Bailey Hutchison	I am proud of the President's leadership. I am proud to support him in saying: Yes, we are going to do what is necessary now when it is less painful and less expensive.	111
Kumar Mangalam Birla	Very often, we think of leadership being at the very top of an organisation. I think what's unique about ABG is that we have a very strong cadre of leaders across the organisation who are highly empowered and therefore play a very major role in the growth and evolution of the organization.	111
Steve Largent	I think leadership is more than just being able to cross the t's and dot the i's. It's about character and integrity and work ethic.	111
Ernst Zundel	I am not saying that during the Second World War Germany did not, under the leadership of the National Socialist government, commit crimes.	111
George Ayittey	Across Africa there is what I call a colonialist mentality or orthodoxy. Orthodoxy in the sense that a lot of things have gone wrong in Africa in the post-colonial period. And time and time again, any time something went wrong, the leadership claims that it was never their fault.	111
Peter MacKay	It's not as if our party has a leadership campaign underway.	111
Thomas E. Mann	All of this suggests that while citizens became more comfortable with President Bush after September 11 and thought him to have the requisite leadership skills, they continue to harbor doubts about his priorities, loyalties, interests, and policies.	111
Tim Bishop	This administration and the leadership in Congress appear to be intent on valuing wealth over work, thereby placing working families at a distinct disadvantage.	111
Alan Autry	I am convinced that your Mayor must take the leadership role in education too.	111
Salman Khurshid	Governments follow their people. A great deal has to do with the vision of the leadership of governments. They have a vision, and they translate that to their people and to their counterparts in other countries. You can fulfill and achieve a great deal if you get along well as individuals, as people, as persons.	111
Mick Cornett	People look for their leadership to lead.	111
John Garamendi	For centuries, America has led the world on a long march toward freedom and democracy. Let's reclaim our clean energy leadership and lead the world toward clean energy independence.	111
John Grierson	Such manifestations I account as representing the creative leadership of the new forces of thought and appreciation which attend changes in technological pattern and therefore of the pattern of human relationships in society.	111
Henry A. Kissinger	A leader does not deserve the name unless he is willing occasionally to stand alone.	112
Simon Sinek	Leadership is absolutely about inspiring action, but it is also about guarding against mis-action.	112
Henry Ward Beecher	Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody expects of you. Never excuse yourself.	112
Jimmy Johnson	I think as far as any kind of pressure on a football team or on an individual in professional sports really depends not only on that individual but the leadership they have on the team and the leadership they have on the coaching staff. A lot of times, they can divert some of those pressures off of the individual and off of the team.	112
Justin Trudeau	My father's values and vision of this country obviously form everything I have as values and ideals. But this is not the ghost of my father running for the leadership of the Liberal party. This is me.	112
Larry Bird	Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony. And they can tell when you're not giving it all you've got.	112
Norman Lear	I think the greater responsibility, in terms of morality, is where leadership begins.	112
Wendy Kopp	Charter laws do something really important. They give educators the freedom and flexibility that they need to attain results. But we also have to invest a lot in the leadership pipeline to take advantage of that freedom and flexibility.	112
Andy Stanley	The church wasn't an organization in the first century. They weren't writing checks or buying property. The church has matured and developed over the years. But for some reason, the last thing to change is the structure of leadership.	112
Anna Deavere Smith	I think we need leadership that helps us remember that part of what we are about is caring about more than the person right next to us, but the folks across the way.	112
Bill Owens	Leadership offers an opportunity to make a difference in someone's life, no matter what the project.	112
Doris Kearns Goodwin	That is what leadership is all about: staking your ground ahead of where opinion is and convincing people, not simply following the popular opinion of the moment.	112
Eugene Cernan	I think America has a responsibility to maintain its leadership in technology and its moral leadership in the world, to explore, to seek knowledge.	112
Frank Gaffney	Boone Pickens should be commended for his leadership on American energy security, and for bringing Ted Turner along on some sensible approaches to enhancing it.	112
Helen Clark	In terms of having views and being prepared to express them, yes, I think New Zealand's had a leadership role in a lot of things.	112
Marian Anderson	Leadership should be born out of the understanding of the needs of those who would be affected by it.	112
Martin McGuinness	But the fact is that the vast majority of Republicans support the Sinn Fein leadership.	112
Mo Ibrahim	There is a crisis of leadership and governance in Africa, and we must face it.	112
Paul Tsongas	I want to deploy the leadership to meet the challenges that face us and to restore America's greatness.	112
Gary Ackerman	People more than ever since I can remember are concerned about being out of step and out of line with their political party and won't cross over. There is nobody, man or woman, who wants to be left out, and people are fearful of that. People are fearful of their leadership as well.	112
Joe Lieberman	I also know that there have been many times in our history when the proximity of an election has induced exactly the kind of leadership and consensus-building that produce progress in our democracy.	112
John Mackey	I think for leadership positions, emotional intelligence is more important than cognitive intelligence. People with emotional intelligence usually have a lot of cognitive intelligence, but that's not always true the other way around.	112
Lloyd Dorfman	Individual and corporate support is vital to building on London's leadership in the arts, and I hope others will join me in wanting to build on the National's role at the heart of modern theatre and sustaining it long into the future.	112
Steve Case	And I'd say one of the great lessons I've learned over the past couple of decades, from a management perspective, is that really when you come down to it, it really is all about people and all about leadership.	112
Susan Rice	I think most Americans understand that we went through a period in which American leadership was judged quite critically internationally.	112
Rick Larsen	We need safe communities that are free from methamphetamine and a federal commitment to stand next to state leadership and law enforcement in the fight against this epidemic.	112
John Naisbitt	Leadership involves finding a parade and getting in front of it.	112
Michael Steele	The bottom line is, I hear my donors, I hear our base out there, I hear the leadership. And we're taking steps to make sure that we're even more - how shall we say it - fiscally conservative in our spending and certainly making sure the dollars are there when it's time to run our campaigns.	112
Anna Maria Chavez	Research shows that girls look at leadership differently than boys.	112
Jim Leach	America somehow thinks that leadership relates to governance, and it certainly does. But society is much bigger than governance, and some of the truly great leadership of our society is outside the governance arena.	112
Charles de Gaulle	The great leaders have always stage-managed their effects.	113
Andrew Carnegie	The first man gets the oyster, the second man gets the shell.	113
Casey Stengel	The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.	113
Dianne Feinstein	Instead of starting a new nuclear arms race, now is the time to reclaim our Nation's position of leadership on nuclear nonproliferation efforts.	113
Laurence J. Peter	Lead, follow, or get out of the way.	113
Louis V. Gerstner, Jr.	I think that my leadership style is to get people to fear staying in place, to fear not changing.	113
Nancy Lublin	I don't run a non-profit. There are lots of non-profits in America - in Detroit, parts of Wall Street, etc. I run a not for profit. We're a business. The only difference is that instead of selling soap or sneakers, we sell hope and leadership.	113
Park Geun-hye	Different times need different types of leadership.	113
Peter T. King	As far as Iraq, the important thing is that the Taliban is gone in Afghanistan, three-quarters of the al-Qaida leadership is either dead or in jail, and we now have Saudi Arabia working with us, Pakistan working with us.	113
Sheryl Sandberg	I'd like to see where boys and girls end up if they get equal encouragement - I think we might have some differences in how leadership is done.	113
Wendell Willkie	Education is the mother of leadership.	113
Howard Coble	I look forward to working with our leadership team to advance the causes of smaller government, lower taxes, eliminating terrorism, and providing affordable health care, among other issues.	113
Kay Bailey Hutchison	The important thing is that we recognize our President's leadership, that he is not saying: I am going to walk away from this. He is saying: I am going to do the right thing.	113
Michael Scheuer	I think Mr. Clarke had a tendency to interfere too much with the activities of the CIA, and our leadership at the senior level let him interfere too much. So criticism from him I kind of wear as a badge of honor.	113
Patricia Ireland	I want to organize so that women see ourselves as people who are entitled to power, entitled to leadership.	113
Sam Graves	It's mystifying to me why the House leadership will not allow a straight up-or-down vote on a pay raise. I vote against every pay raise because taxpayers deserve better.	113
Shashi Tharoor	The notion of 'world leadership' is a curiously archaic one. The very phrase is redolent of Kipling ballads and James Bondian adventures. What makes a country a world leader? Is it population, in which case India is on course to top the charts, overtaking China as the world's most populous country by 2034?	113
Steve Ballmer	I think our leadership team is a highly accountable leadership team.	113
Dennis Cardoza	The longer we go without strong leadership from the Administration and until we see significant progress in the day-to-day lives of the Iraqi people, the more difficult it will become to sustain the support of the American people and Congress for the current course.	113
Douglas Conant	Leadership does take work. And it should. If you aspire to be a leader, you ought to treat leadership as a craft, you ought to become a student of it, and you ought to work at it. And if you're not willing to work at it, well, you get what you give.	113
Tom Coburn	We need real leadership, Democrat, Republican and independent to stand up and say, we have to live within our means.	113
Anne Campbell	I have never been afraid to stand up to the leadership on issues where we disagree. If you chose to keep Cambridge Labour, then I can continue to press the Government for the things that matter to you, in a way that members of the opposition are unable to.	113
Albert Schweitzer	Example is leadership.	114
Mike Pence	I believe in servant leadership, and the servant always asks, 'Where am I needed most?'	114
Ed Gillespie	If Ralph Nader runs, President Bush is going to be re-elected, and if Ralph Nader doesn't run, President Bush is going to be re-elected. We're going to run on the president's strong and principled leadership and his positive agenda for a second term.	114
Fredrik Bajer	On the other hand, the waging of peace as a science, as an art, is in its infancy. But we can trace its growth, its steady progress, and the time will come when there will be particular individuals designated to assume responsibility for and leadership of this movement.	114
Paul Ryan	The secret to understanding me is, I'm not trying to be anybody other than who I actually am. People want candid, refreshing leadership. And I've always tried to go with solutions. You know, I've always tried to say, here's how we get our economy growing, here's why we get our debt under control. That's what Mitt Romney is offering.	114
Philip Zimbardo	A good cult delivers on its promises. A good cult nourishes the needs of its members, has transparency and integrity, and creates provisions for challenging its leadership openly. A good cult expands the freedoms and well-being of its members rather than limits them.	114
Ray Kroc	You're only as good as the people you hire.	114
T. Boone Pickens	If you can provide the funding and you get the leadership, you'll have a competitive team.	114
Anne M. Mulcahy	Xerox's innovative technology and service offerings - delivered through an expanding distribution system with a lean and flexible business model - continue to solidify our market leadership, driving consistently strong earnings performance.	114
Anthony Fauci	Some people feel, you make your case, if they listen to you, fine, if they don't, that's it. That's not what leadership is. Leadership is trying to continue to make a case.	114
Byron Dorgan	We need leadership, and we need it now.	114
Patty Hearst	I mean, Emily Harris was his wife. And she seemed to resent his leadership, but on the other hand, she felt like a good soldier, that he had to be the leader.	114
Christie Hefner	Being a CEO still means sitting across the table from big institutional investors and showing your leadership and having them believe in you.	114
Dennis Cardoza	The truth is the Republican leadership has created a credit card Congress that is recklessly selling out the future of America, our children and our grandchildren, and President Bush is the most fiscally irresponsible President in the history of America.	114
Dianna Agron	I definitely wasn't cool in high school. I really wasn't. I did belong to many of the clubs and was in leadership on yearbook and did the musical theater route, so I had friends in all areas. But I certainly did not know what to wear, did not know how to do my hair, all those things.	114
Gwen Moore	I've been the co-chair of the Non-Partisan Women's Caucus and vice-chair for several years, taking a leadership role in this women's organization.	114
Mary Douglas	If people want to compete for leadership of a religious group, they can compete in piety. A chilling thought. Or funny.	114
Lao Tzu	When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves.'	115
John C. Maxwell	Leadership is influence.	115
Norman Schwarzkopf	You learn far more from negative leadership than from positive leadership. Because you learn how not to do it. And, therefore, you learn how to do it.	115
Angela Davis	You can never stop and as older people, we have to learn how to take leadership from the youth and I guess I would say that this is what I'm attempting to do right now.	115
Bob Iger	I think it is important for people who are given leadership roles to assume that role immediately.	115
Dee Dee Myers	I am endlessly fascinated that playing football is considered a training ground for leadership, but raising children isn't. Hey, it made me a better leader: you have to take a lot of people's needs into account; you have to look down the road. Trying to negotiate getting a couple of kids to watch the same TV show requires serious diplomacy.	115
Donna Karan	I've always been about the power of a woman - accentuating the positive, deleting the negative, whether you're talking her body, her voice or her leadership.	115
Fred Wilson	It's not easy for an entrepreneur to find the time to blog. But for those who do it, it is a great tool to communicate with the various stakeholders in their business and build a reputation for thought leadership.	115
Kamala Harris	I want to use my position of leadership to help move along at a faster pace what I believe and know the Obama administration wants to do around the urgency of climate change.	115
Kyrie Irving	One thing that somebody told me is that leadership is a lonely role - some people can do it, and some people can't.	115
Nigel Hamilton	The moral was, in time of anarchy, tough leadership is the only solution - even though the collateral damage may be heartbreaking. Mrs. Thatcher's strident, take-no prisoners approach was in some ways repugnant, but it was surely necessary.	115
Pat Riley	To have long term success as a coach or in any position of leadership, you have to be obsessed in some way.	115
Ralph Nader	I start with the premise that the function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers.	115
Steve Nash	Leadership is possible in all different ways, and in all different areas of life. Whether it is with friends or family, I expect them to set a great example for me, and hopefully I will do the same for them. And that is all part of being a leader.	115
Yahoo Serious	We live in a time where government is not a leadership thing, it's more a business that's out there and running riot, so I guess the people have to go out there and say stuff.	115
Peter Senge	Most leadership strategies are doomed to failure from the outset.	115
David Mixner	President Clinton not only benefits by gay and lesbian votes, but he benefits by showing the nation that he is a strong leader who implements his beliefs, who stands firm by those who he believes are being treated unfairly, and I think people respect that kind of leadership in the country.	115
Preet Bharara	History has shown that one cannot legislate a culture of integrity. And yet, one of the paramount responsibilities and challenges of corporate leadership is to ensure such a culture.	115
Aaron Schock	Each year I host a leadership summit in my district, and my biggest advice to young people is get experience. Get your foot in the door.	115
Ron Kind	I believe that we as the leader of the Free World must provide important leadership on the ethical parameters, the ethical constraints that this research requires.	115
Adam Braun	For any movement to gain momentum, it must start with a small action. This action becomes multiplied by the masses, and is made tangible when leadership changes course due to the weight of the movement's voice.	115
Jim Rohn	Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion.	116
Peter Drucker	No institution can possibly survive if it needs geniuses or supermen to manage it. It must be organized in such a way as to be able to get along under a leadership composed of average human beings.	116
Indra Nooyi	The one thing I have learned as a CEO is that leadership at various levels is vastly different. When I was leading a function or a business, there were certain demands and requirements to be a leader. As you move up the organization, the requirements for leading that organization don't grow vertically; they grow exponentially.	116
John D. Rockefeller	Good leadership consists of showing average people how to do the work of superior people.	116
Carter G. Woodson	This assumption of Negro leadership in the ghetto, then, must not be confined to matters of religion, education, and social uplift; it must deal with such fundamental forces in life as make these things possible.	116
Henry Cloud	In a very real way, ownership is the essence of leadership. When you are 'ridiculously in charge,' then you own whatever happens in a company, school, et cetera.	116
David Miliband	The test of leadership for David Cameron was actually to bring the British Conservative Party back in to the mainstream.	116
Sherrod Brown	It is past time for Republican leadership to answer for record deficits and reckless spending, both in Iraq and in the U.S. It's time for a plan to bring our troops home.	116
David Rubenstein	I am involved in a lot of nonprofits. And when I reached the ripe old age of 60, I wanted to provide leadership to some I had been involved in.	116
Deval Patrick	I very much believe in values-based leadership and that the values that I believe in and try to govern by are transcendent values.	116
Michael Burgess	The Leadership Training Institute of America is a cultural think tank providing training and opportunity in leadership development and cultural dynamics.	116
Jeremy Grantham	Libertarians believe that any government interference is bad. Anyone with a brain knows that climate change needs governmental leadership, and they can smell this is bad news for their philosophy. Their ideology is so strongly held that, remarkably, it's overcoming the facts.	116
R. Buckminster Fuller	I look for what needs to be done. After all, that's how the universe designs itself.	117
Douglas Brinkley	Stubbornness is a positive quality of presidential leadership - if you're right about what you're stubborn about.	117
Henry Cloud	I fell in love with the topic of leadership. For three decades, that has been a major focus of my hands-on work: listening to and working with leaders, their teams and their organizations.	117
Ibrahim Babangida	But no nation can base its survival and development on luck and prayers alone while its leadership fritters away every available opportunity for success and concrete achievement.	117
Irving Babbitt	The democratic idealist is prone to make light of the whole question of standards and leadership because of his unbounded faith in the plain people.	117
Margaret J. Wheatley	I'm sad to report that in the past few years, ever since uncertainty became our insistent 21st century companion, leadership has taken a great leap backwards to the familiar territory of command and control.	117
Michael T. Flynn	Because of Obama's ill-advised actions, the world has lost American leadership.	117
Myles Munroe	Character in leadership is the most important balance for leadership. Without character, leaders have no safety. Leadership has no protection without character.	117
Norman Lear	In this nation, leadership is dollars.	117
Peter T. King	But 85 percent of the mosques have extremist leadership in this country. Most Muslims, the overwhelming majority of Muslims, are loyal Americans.	117
Thomas Szasz	Every act of conscious learning requires the willingness to suffer an injury to one's self-esteem. That is why young children, before they are aware of their own self-importance, learn so easily.	117
Warren Bennis	The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born-that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That's nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.	117
Andy Stanley	Uncertainty is not an indication of poor leadership; it underscores the need for leadership.	117
Bobby Jindal	I think the American people are looking for real leadership. That's what I've done in Louisiana, that's what I'll do in America.	117
Chris Christie	They said it was impossible to touch the third rail of politics, to take on public-sector unions and to reform a pension and health benefits system that was headed to bankruptcy. But with bipartisan leadership, we saved taxpayers $132 billion dollars over 30 years and saved retirees their pensions. We did it.	117
Tom Vilsack	You know, rural Americans are a special people. Their labor puts food on our table and fuel in our gas tanks. Their service in our military sets a powerful example of leadership, honor and sacrifice. Their spirit of community inspires us all.	117
Dennis Hastert	President Reagan was a leader at a time when the American people most needed leadership. He outlined a vision that captured the imagination of the free world, a vision that toppled the Communist empire and freed countless millions.	117
Douglas Conant	I would assert that highly effective leaders are made more than they're born. Every leader I know who's been highly effective has worked hard at it, and they've been students of it. The more you're a student of leadership, the more you figure out what works for you and the more effective you're going to be.	117
Robert Shea	One simple way to keep organizations from becoming cancerous might be to rotate all jobs on a regular, frequent and mandatory basis, including the leadership positions.	117
Dwight D. Eisenhower	Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.	118
Kobe Bryant	The topic of leadership is a touchy one. A lot of leaders fail because they don't have the bravery to touch that nerve or strike that chord. Throughout my years, I haven't had that fear.	118
Indra Nooyi	Leadership is hard to define and good leadership even harder. But if you can get people to follow you to the ends of the earth, you are a great leader.	118
Dianne Feinstein	Ninety percent of leadership is the ability to communicate something people want.	118
Jesse Jackson	Time is neutral and does not change things. With courage and initiative, leaders change things.	118
Kamala Harris	Doing nothing while the middle class is hurting. That's not leadership. Loose regulations and lax enforcement. That's not leadership. That's abandoning our middle class.	118
Leila Janah	I think people are hungry for new ideas and leadership in the world of poverty alleviation. Most development programs are started and led by people with Ph.Ds in economics or policy. Samasource is part of a cadre of younger organizations headed by entrepreneurs from non-traditional backgrounds.	118
Paul Manafort	Donald Trump was not asked by the leadership to change. And there's no reason for him to change. He's just won the primary process with a record number of votes, beating a field of 16 qualified candidates. So, there's no reason for Donald Trump to change.	118
Steve Wynn	You watch television and see what's going on on this debt ceiling issue. And what I consider to be a total lack of leadership from the President and nothing's going to get fixed until the President himself steps up and wrangles both parties in Congress.	118
Bob Riley	Half a world away nations that once lived under oppression and tyranny are now budding democracies due in large part to America 's leadership and the sacrifices of our military.	118
Dikembe Mutombo	Basketball Without Borders is a leadership camp that takes basketball to different places around the world, to Africa, Europe, America and Asia. It's a camp that brings players from different parts of the continent to one city that's been assigned as the host city. We've been going to a different city every year.	118
John Fleming	The Freedom Caucus, like many of the members, feel like that we have too much of a top-heavy, power-based type of leadership program where the decisions are made exclusively at the top and that members voices are not heard, which means that our constituents' voices are not heard: those that we represent.	118
Mike Quigley	Too often, advances in civil rights or women's rights are undermined by wrong-headed legislation or weak-kneed political leadership.	118
Jackson Katz	Ben Roethlisberger is a proven winner in athletic competition. But the measure of a true leader is how they conduct themselves 24/7, not just during a winning touchdown drive or a goal-line stance. Leadership isn't something that gets switched off because the game clock expires.	118
John O. Brennan	Since taking office, President Obama has worked to restore a positive vision of American leadership in the world - leadership defined, not by the threats and dangers that we will oppose, but by the security, opportunity and dignity that America advances in partnership with people around the world.	118
John Abizaid	I think what actually works best is local-level individual targeting of key leadership nodes.	118
Harry S Truman	Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.	119
Bertolt Brecht	There are many elements to a campaign. Leadership is number one. Everything else is number two.	119
David Cameron	Half a century ago, the amazing courage of Rosa Parks, the visionary leadership of Martin Luther King, and the inspirational actions of the civil rights movement led politicians to write equality into the law and make real the promise of America for all her citizens.	119
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	Democrats are going to proudly run on the fact that we turned the economy around. It was our policies under President Obama's leadership through the Recovery Act, through investing in the automobile industry.	119
Imran Amed	Even back in elementary school, I was a leader, but a leader who didn't know how to channel my leadership skills in a constructive way. When I was younger, it probably came out as being more of a bossy little kid.	119
Kenneth Branagh	In 'Henry V,' the story of the assumption of true and responsible leadership by Henry I think is hard-won. He has to lose friends; he has to risk his life.	119
Michael T. Flynn	Donald Trump's leadership, decision-making and problem solving will restore America's role as the undeniable and unquestioned world leader.	119
Paul Gosar	We were elected to serve our districts, and that demands putting bygones aside. That's what leadership's all about.	119
Paul Wellstone	I emphasize self-esteem, self-confidence, and dignity, not as an ideal, but as a real test of community organization. Without leadership development, community organizations do not have staying power.	119
Rahm Emanuel	Because of the president's leadership, every American will have access to affordable, quality health care.	119
Mario Monti	So I think democracy, in the long-term, in our countries will survive if it comes to be associated with leadership, will not survive if democracy plus media brings to us more and more followship rather than leadership.	119
Jim Rohn	A good objective of leadership is to help those who are doing poorly to do well and to help those who are doing well to do even better.	120
John C. Maxwell	People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision.	120
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	Aren't we at the point where the closer we get to chaos, the more concern that there should be about coming to the table and compromising with Democrats? This is not leadership. This is almost like dictatorship.	120
Donald Rumsfeld	Don't necessarily avoid sharp edges. Occasionally they are necessary to leadership.	120
Henry Cloud	What happens with a lot of leaders is that their leadership style is like ADD; they are all over the place with different ideas. They could be driving one idea forward but then move on to something else too soon.	120
Howard Schultz	I think there is probably no better person to aspire to emulate than Steve Jobs and what he has done at Apple in terms of his leadership, his innovation, not settling for mediocrity.	120
Ken Robinson	If you're running an engineering or finance company, all companies depend on ideas and ingenuity. I think the principles of creative leadership apply everywhere, whether it's an advertising company or whether you're running a hospital.	120
Noah Feldman	In politics, Joseph Smith was something of a radical. He preached, instead of democracy, a version of theocratic rule within a framework given by his own prophetic leadership. At Nauvoo, Smith affected a Napoleonic uniform and made himself into a general and quasi king of the polity he had constituted.	120
William J. Clinton	I want American Dream growth - lots of new businesses, well-paying jobs, and American leadership in new industries, like clean energy and biotechnology.	120
Jacqueline Novogratz	I think we so often equate leadership with being experts - the leader is supposed to come in and fix things. But in this interconnected world we live in now, it's almost impossible for just one person to do that.	120
Jim Ramstad	All Americans and freedom-loving people around the world owe President Reagan our deepest gratitude for his strong, principled leadership that ended the Cold War and brought freedom to millions of people.	120
Lucy Powell	I have run a general election campaign pregnant and ran Ed Miliband's leadership campaign commuting to London with a new baby so I already have my system set up.	120
Madeleine M. Kunin	There are no more excuses for leaving women out of the inner circles of power. Qualified women are everywhere. Women are ready for leadership; they just need to be identified and asked.	120
Malcolm Turnbull	China and India will take the global leadership on climate change: they are suffering for it.	120
Margaret Heffernan	I'm all for ambition and stretch goals. I set them for myself. But leadership isn't the same as cheerleading. Believing in something is a necessary but absolutely insufficient condition for making it come true.	120
Sherrod Brown	Year after year, President Bush has broken his campaign promises on college aid. And year after year, the Republican leadership in Congress has let him do it.	120
Mark Udall	President Ford was a devoted, decent man of impeccable integrity who put service to his country before his own self interest. He helped heal our nation during a time of crisis, provided steady leadership and restored people's faith in the presidency and in government.	120
Cesar Chavez	When poor people get involved in a long conflict, such as a strike or a civil rights drive, and the pressure increases each day, there is a deep need for spiritual advice. Without it, we see families crumble, leadership weaken, and hard workers grow tired.	121
Jim Rohn	Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention.	121
Chinua Achebe	A functioning, robust democracy requires a healthy educated, participatory followership, and an educated, morally grounded leadership.	121
Irwin Redlener	No organization should be allowed near disaster unless they are willing to cooperate with some level of established leadership.	121
Michael Gove	Labor, under their current leadership, want to be the Downtown Abbey party when it comes to educational opportunity. They think working class children should stick to the station in life they were born into - they should be happy to be recognized for being good with their hands and not presume to get above themselves.	121
Mike Krzyzewski	Leadership is an ever-evolving position.	121
Octavia Butler	I recognize we will pay more attention when we have different leadership.	121
Travis Bradberry	It's through a leader's actions - what he or she does and says on a daily basis - that the essence of great leadership becomes apparent.	121
James Dobson	My observation is that women are merely waiting for their husbands to assume leadership.	121
Paul Broun	I do go against my leadership all the time because I stand firm on the four questions that I ask about all legislation. The first, is it constitutional according to the original intent? The second, does it fit the Judeo-Christian Biblical principles that our nation is founded upon? Third, do we need it? Fourth, can we afford it?	121
Andrew Greeley	The leadership lost its nerve. Instead of taking the lead in the reform movement... they pulled the plug on it. They tried and are still trying to return the church to the dry ice of the previous century and a half.	121
John Eldredge	There are a lot of good men out there who just need a little direction and leadership in order for them to offer what they have to young men and boys.	121
Jenny Shipley	I was brought up in a family of leaders, and I think leadership is a life sentence. I like changing things that will shape the future.	121
Martin Luther King, Jr.	A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.	122
Angela Davis	Now, if we look at the way in which the labor movement itself has evolved over the last couple of decades, we see increasing numbers of black people who are in the leadership of the labor movement and this is true today.	122
Adam Schiff	In fact, the converse is true: At a time when the United States has been called on for a level of moral leadership, vision and inspiration not seen since World War II, we cannot afford to dissemble about crimes against humanity.	122
Bo Bennett	Without initiative, leaders are simply workers in leadership positions.	122
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	The fact is, when it comes to economic leadership, the Republicans have nothing to brag about. This isn't what the American people want. They want to see progress that works for them.	122
Louis Farrakhan	Black leadership has to recognize that principles more than speech, character more than a claim, is greater in advancing the cause of our liberation than what has transpired thus far.	122
Warren Bennis	Leaders must encourage their organizations to dance to forms of music yet to be heard.	122
Bob Feller	There was great leadership in this country at the time of World War II. There was also unrelenting resolve at home, in America's factories and on the farms, in the cities and the country.	122
Ed Markey	The problem is, is that President Bush and the Republican leadership in the Congress have resisted attempts to increase dramatically our fuel economy standards over the last five years.	122
Ed Rendell	I think national issues play into gubernatorial races less than, obviously, in Senate and Congressional races. Much less. They tend to be more decided by personality, leadership qualities and by state or local issues. They still have some effect, no question about it, but not as much as Senate and Congressional races.	122
Edgar Bronfman, Sr.	In politics, as in business, leadership is crucial.	122
Michael D. Higgins	I am delighted with the strong vote I have received. My message of positive leadership, patriotism and commitment clearly was resonating with tens of thousands of ordinary Irish people.	122
Cathy McMorris Rodgers	When President Obama was in the Senate, when he was a U.S. senator, he voted against raising the debt ceiling. And he said it was a lack of leadership that had brought us to this point.	122
W. Clement Stone	No matter how carefully you plan your goals they will never be more than pipe dreams unless you pursue them with gusto.	123
Andy Serkis	I think Caesar is one of the most empathetic characters that I've played. I think that's the key to a successful leadership. Being able to keep your ears open at all times.	123
Chiang Kai-shek	Dr. Sun Yat-sen, Father of the Republic, made it his great aim in his revolutionary leadership to secure freedom and equality of status for China among the nations of the world.	123
Danny Meyer	Constant, gentle pressure is my preferred technique for leadership, guidance, and coaching.	123
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	We're going to need to absorb some pain. The Republicans want to pile all the pain on people who can least afford it and the middle class and Democrats under his leadership want to make sure that we can address deficit reduction and continue to make investments and shared sacrifice is going to be imperative in order to be able to do that.	123
George Osborne	I had the closest thing I have ever had to an out-of-body experience lying in bed one morning. I turned on the 'Today' programme and item four on the news was: 'The shadow chancellor has ruled himself out of the leadership.' I lay there thinking that's interesting, then I realised it was me.	123
Herman Cain	The one thing that the President can do is to establish a real energy independence plan. We have all the recources we need right here in this country to establish energy independence if we had the leadership.	123
Vicente Fox	Obama is thoroughly mixed up with all these things he's got. He's got to solve Libya. He's got to solve Afghanistan. He's everywhere. And this nation, I don't know why it's not showing the leadership and capacity to attend different issues at the same time.	123
Martin O'Malley	I believe that there are new perspectives that are needed in order for us to resolve the problems that we face as Americans and also the problems we face as people on this planet, and I believe that new perspective and new leadership is needed.	123
Ron Fournier	With gridlock the norm, Congress's approval rating is below 10 percent and the public has lost faith in its national leadership.	123
Andrew Luck	I think in any situation, so much of effective leadership is when it comes from your own personality. And I feel very fortunate to be comfortable in the Colts locker room, where people can be who they are, and they don't have to change it when they show up to work that day.	123
Biz Stone	In any leadership position, you're always going to be disappointing somebody.	123
Margaret D. Nadauld	I watched my parents in their leadership callings in the Church and the community. We just grew up knowing that we should serve and do whatever we could do to make things grow.	123
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam	Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model.	124
Kim Campbell	I believe it is time for new leadership that is able to leave the '70s behind.	124
Nina Easton	In 1992, Bill Clinton ran on a platform of 'ending welfare as we know it.' His political worldview, drawn from like-minded thinkers at the Democratic Leadership Council, was based in private sector growth and personal responsibility.	124
Noah Feldman	The Chinese public is deeply nationalist, which matters to China's unelected political leadership as much as U.S. nationalism does to American politicians. As China becomes the world's largest economy, there is meaningful public pressure for its power status to advance in parallel. Any alternative would be humiliating.	124
Paul Manafort	Leadership is failing. And Donald Trump is going to take a holistic approach to how we focus on these things, and he's not going to allow disparate activities in the communities to define everything.	124
Baba Kalyani	I don't think one party has a bad vision over the other party. I have no doubts that every Indian and every Indian political leadership would like to see this country get to a much better level. We would all like to see inclusive growth.	124
Ronald Kessler	The truth is that no internal reviews or congressional hearings will change the Secret Service's broken management culture. It needs better leadership.	124
Joe Wurzelbacher	It's an American worker's right to unionize for sure, but that being said, don't expect me not to point out when or if union leadership takes advantage of union members.	124
Gene Green	Floor time is valuable. Our leadership isn't going to bring something up that's going to take up floor time and not be successful.	125
Louis V. Gerstner, Jr.	The next thing is: we can make IBM even better. We brought IBM back but we're gunning for leadership.	125
Rahm Emanuel	Whose leadership, whose judgment, whose values do you want in the White House when that crisis lands like a thud on the Oval Office desk?	125
Young Jeezy	Music is all about leadership and there ain't really a lot of leaders.	125
Carmelo Anthony	Leadership is something I was born with.	125
David Miliband	The biggest novelty of 2013 will be new leadership in China. Very little is known about the views of the new leaders - who will rule the country for ten years. But we do know they're the first generation of Chinese leaders who have spent the majority of their lives in a China 'opening up' to the rest of the world.	125
Drew Gilpin Faust	I think the most important leadership lessons I've learned have to do with understanding the context in which you are leading. Universities are places with enormously distributed authority and many different sorts of constituencies, all of whom have a stake in that institution.	125
Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa	You cannot transpose the U.S. system on Turkey, and the Turkish system on France etc. You have to understand the people and their culture. That's leadership.	125
Michelle Bachelet	I took a gamble to exercise leadership without losing my feminine nature.	125
Confucius	The cautious seldom err.	126
William James	If you care enough for a result, you will most certainly attain it.	126
Carly Fiorina	Leadership comes in small acts as well as bold strokes.	126
Christiane Amanpour	We in the press, by our power, can actually undermine leadership.	126
David Ignatius	Enter the candidates on horseback: While military leaders can sometimes be dangerous in politics, our best generals and admirals embody the democratic values and leadership skills for which the country is yearning.	126
John Lasseter	A good part of my leadership skills is crafted from learning from experiences early in my career that were not positive experiences.	126
Michael Pollan	The things journalists should pay attention to are the issues the political leadership agrees on, rather than to their supposed antagonisms.	126
Satya Nadella	The thing I'm most focused on today is, how am I maximizing the effectiveness of the leadership team, and what am I doing to nurture it?	126
Travis Bradberry	Great leadership can be a difficult thing to pin down and understand. You know a great leader when you're working for one, but even they can have a hard time articulating what it is that makes their leadership so effective.	126
Wendy Kopp	Mindsets, skills and leadership, experience and access, and critical consciousness - we need all four of these things for our students to be the leaders, people and citizens we want them to be.	126
Lucy Powell	It's not a matter of if economies around the world becoming low-carbon, but when and how: through struggle and strife or through advancement and progressive leadership. Larry Elliot described it today as the 'Green New Deal.' It's a leadership we in Britain can provide, and from which our economy can benefit.	126
Studs Terkel	I'm not up on the Internet, but I hear that is a democratic possibility. People can connect with each other. I think people are ready for something, but there is no leadership to offer it to them. People are ready to say, 'Yes, we are part of a world.'	126
Theodore Roosevelt	People ask the difference between a leader and a boss. The leader leads, and the boss drives.	201
Condoleezza Rice	I talked about the need for American leadership, I talked about the importance of the United States to a more peaceful world, a world that has been quite turbulent in recent years, and needs a strong American anchor.	201
Ibrahim Babangida	To meet the expectations of the majority of our people, and to open up new vistas of economic opportunity so that the aspirations of Nigerians can stand a fair chance of being fulfilled in a lifetime, there must be a truly committed leadership in a democratic Nigeria.	201
Margaret J. Wheatley	I believe that the capacity that any organisation needs is for leadership to appear anywhere it is needed, when it is needed.	201
Dylan Lauren	I always liked the idea of leadership and being a captain.	201
Jessica Lange	To my mind the election was stolen by George Bush and we have been suffering ever since under this man's leadership.	201
Jeff Greenfield	There is something discordant about a team of speechwriters and political operatives hammering away to create an image of the 'real, inner' candidate. And, to be blunt, there is no necessary connection between a moving life experience and the skills necessary for leadership.	201
Angela Davis	I never saw myself as an individual who had any particular leadership powers.	202
Gerry Adams	The Irish Republican Army has kept every commitment made by its leadership.	202
Grover Norquist	A lot of young people just starting out unskilled, as all Americans do when they're born here, come to this country, and so the business community is for immigration. Big businesses, small businesses, high-tech, low-tech, the communities of faith, and the Republican leadership.	202
Iain Duncan Smith	Well football teams are perhaps easier to control than political parties, I'm sure the Prime Minister would agree with me, but yeah I think every team needs discipline and a sense of self-belief and that's important, that's what leadership's all about.	202
Jesse Jackson	Leadership cannot just go along to get along. Leadership must meet the moral challenge of the day.	202
Paul Manafort	Donald Trump is talking about the failed leadership of the Obama Administration.	202
Timothy Noah	Within the narrow confines of Permanent Washington - the journalists, lobbyists, and congressional lifers who are the city's avatars of centrism and continuity - Ford is considered the beau ideal of American leadership.	202
Travis Bradberry	Few things kill likeability as quickly as arrogance. Likable leaders don't act as though they're better than you because they don't think that they're better than you. Rather than being a source of prestige, they see their leadership position as bringing them additional accountability for serving those who follow them.	202
Thomas P.M. Barnett	So long as the global economy continues to recover, that remains Obama's No. 1 claim to successful leadership. Nothing else even comes close.	202
Herbert Hoover	One civilization after another has been wrecked upon the attempt to secure sufficient leadership from a single group or class.	203
Nancy Pelosi	The Republican Party is the Grand Old Party. It's made enormous contributions to the success of our country. And it is a party that has embraced its leadership role when it has had the majority or the White House.	203
Rodney Frelinghuysen	I now sit at the table in a variety of ways with the House leadership... as we go through taking a look at threat assessments and hot spots around the world. It's a national position, but certainly I don't forget that New Jersey has a critical part of national defense.	203
Sheryl Sandberg	I'm a pragmatist. I think, as a woman, you have to be more careful. You have to be more communal, you have to say yes to more things than men, you have to worry about things that men don't have to worry about. But once we get enough women into leadership, we can break stereotypes down. If you lead, you get to decide.	203
Warren Bennis	Leadership has become a heavy industry. Concern and interest about leadership development is no longer an American phenomenon. It is truly global. Though I will probably be in less demand, I wanted to move on.	203
Thomas Sowell	People who enjoy meetings should not be in charge of anything.	204
Debbie Wasserman Schultz	Unfortunately, the Republican leadership in the House right now seems to have been strangled by the tea party.	204
Michael Gove	The current leadership of the Labor party react to the idea that working-class students might study the subjects they studied with the same horror that the Earl of Grantham showed when a chauffeur wanted to marry his daughter.	204
Travis Bradberry	Leadership is a mindset in action. So don't wait for the title. Leadership isn't something that anyone can give you - you have to earn it and claim it for yourself.	204
Wendy Davis	I can say with absolute certainty that I will run for one of two offices: my state Senate seat or for the governor. I'm still trying to decide, but I do think people are ready for a change from the partisan, very fractured leadership we have in Texas.	204
Rob Portman	We shouldn't be debating whether to deal with the current code by allowing it to be extended or not. We should have a president who shows leadership and comes to Congress and says: 'You know what? We need to reform this whole tax code.'	204
Jeff Duncan	It was easy for Sanford to have a bully pulpit as governor. It's another thing to be in the trenches, having to face leadership, and say, 'No, that's not a conservative position, that's not what we're doing.'	204
Peter Drucker	Making good decisions is a crucial skill at every level.	205
Cesar Millan	Bill Gates can't control a high-level-energy dog, because his energy is very low, very calm. Very intellectual. A dog doesn't see that as leadership.	205
David Whyte	In Germany, they have great difficulty with anything that smacks of cultism or messianic leadership. You can't talk about leadership in its charismatic forms.	205
Cory Gardner	Our country needs a new generation of leadership, and I believe that Marco Rubio presents this nation with the greatest possibilities and opportunities to meet the challenges of the next generation.	205
Marcia Fudge	If leadership is something that is in-your-face, then that is a different type of leadership.	205
Roger Goodell	We're in a leadership position in sports. People look up to the National Football League.	205
Ai Weiwei	I think Chinese leadership is trying to tell the world they have another set of logic or reasoning or values which are different from yours. Of course, I don't think they believe that. It's just an argument that's made when you can't confront the truth and facts. They really want to maintain power.	206
Chiang Kai-shek	China is the largest and most ancient of Asiatic countries, but it is not for us boastfully to talk of her right to a position of 'leadership' among those countries.	206
Gerry Adams	For good or ill, I'm a person of leadership. I do my best. I don't dodge responsibility.	206
H. Rap Brown	An old African leader says about leadership, he says that leadership should never be shared; it should always remain in the hands of the dispossessed people. We will lead the revolution.	206
Sam Walton	I learned early on that one of the secrets of campus leadership was the simplest thing of all: speak to people coming down the sidewalk before they speak to you. I would always look ahead and speak to the person coming toward me. If I knew them I would call them by name, but even if I didn't I would still speak to them.	206
Ehud Barak	The Labor party under my leadership is working to bring the Israeli people together from all nationalities in the spirit of the scroll of independence.	206
Tom Vilsack	Let us build a 21st-century rural economy of cutting-edge companies and technologies that lead us to energy and food security. Such an investment will revitalize rural America, re-establish our moral leadership on climate security and eliminate our addiction to foreign oil.	206
Richard Carmona	Actions, such as the designation of National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month, spring from First Lady Michelle Obama's leadership of efforts to end childhood obesity within this generation.	206
Daisaku Ikeda	Leadership that exploits and sacrifices young people on the altar of its goals is nothing more than raw, demonic power. Genuine leadership is found in ceaseless efforts to foster young people, to pave the way forward for them.	207
Evan Osnos	Seventy years after China emerged from the Second World War, the greatest threat facing the nation's leadership is not imperialism but skepticism.	207
Kellyanne Conway	The average American is more focused on leadership than likeability. And more focused on qualifications than quality of speakership.	207
Louis Farrakhan	Overall, the challenge of leadership is both moral and one of developing the characteristics that make us respected by one another.	207
Philip Seymour Hoffman	I think directors should be confident in their leadership capabilities. I think directors should be confident in what they want to do.	207
Samantha Power	In the '90s, there was scant presidential leadership and insufficient domestic political mobilization for foreign policy grounded in human rights.	207
Susana Martinez	In many ways, Mitt Romney and I are very different. Different starts in life. Different paths to leadership. Different cultures.	207
Ayman Odeh	I have no doubt that the Palestinian Arab leadership made a mistake when it did not accept the partition plan in 1947, but I want to try to understand it.	207
Arnold Schwarzenegger	I speak directly to the people, and I know that the people of California want to have better leadership. They want to have great leadership. They want to have somebody that will represent them. And it doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican, young or old.	208
Billy Collins	If an artist is driven primarily by social responsibility, I think the art probably suffers because, again, just as leadership has a rather defined end point or purpose, social responsibility would seem to have a very clear moral context.	208
Charles Stanley	In giving us children, God places us in a position of both leadership and service. He calls us to give up our lives for someone else's sake - to abandon our own desires and put our child's interests first. Yet, according to His perfect design, it is through this selflessness that we can become truly fulfilled.	208
Francois Hollande	France, after the month of May, will share trust with the current leadership of the United States which, on many subjects, has tended to take useful positions in our view.	208
Kevin Plank	Leadership is... to make sure you never limit the idea or opportunity.	208
Newt Gingrich	This is about systemic, institutional corruption, not personality. To ask the Democratic leadership to clean things up would be like asking the old Soviet bureaucracy under Brezhnev to reform itself. It ain't going to happen.	208
Xavier Becerra	I have been chastised by a president, I have antagonized and angered presidents, and I have taken on my own leadership.	208
Juan Williams	When it comes to serious cuts to major programs like Medicaid, the American people are not calling for leadership but magic. They want cuts with no pain.	208
Michael Ignatieff	Since Franklin Roosevelt's leadership in setting up the United Nations and the Nuremberg trials, the U.S. has promoted universal legal norms and the institutions to enforce them while seeking, by hook or by crook, to exempt American citizens, especially soldiers, from their actual application.	208
Robert Kennedy	We in the United States believe in the protection of minorities; we recognize the contributions that they can make and the leadership that they can provide; and we do not believe that any people - whether majority or minority, or individual human beings - are 'expendable' in the cause of theory or of policy.	209
Charles Stanley	God will never direct us to be prideful, arrogant and unforgiving, immoral or slothful or full of fear. We step into these things because we are insensitive to the leadership of the Holy Spirit within us.	209
Doug Ducey	Maintaining a positive working relationship with Mexico's leadership will also be crucial to increasing communication and trade. I plan to personally maintain those relationships.	209
Mickey Drexler	I define leadership as: Emotionally, you own your business. You own it with passion. And you either have or you don't have an economic investment. But when you have all three of those, you are the boss from Day One, and you care every single day more than anyone.	209
Woodrow Wilson	Absolute identity with one's cause is the first and great condition of successful leadership.	210
Jeff Sessions	Even moderates, they can see in Trump the potential to have logjams broken and things finally get done. This makes some conservatives and some liberals furious, nervous, and me nervous a little bit, because I'm a pretty pure conservative. So that's a potential of his leadership.	210
Justin Trudeau	You can't run a government from one single person. What instead matters is that leadership be about gathering around extraordinary individuals and getting the best out of them.	210
Xavier Becerra	California is a very important state. As goes California, so goes the nation. We need to have strong leadership. Someone who can hit the ground running.	210
Margaret Heffernan	One of the sad truths about leadership is that, the higher up the ladder you travel, the less you know.	210
David Novak	The Vatican's recognition of the State of Israel in 1997 could not have occurred without John Paul's leadership.	211
Enrique Pena Nieto	You can't consider a president weak because he will have a Congress that Mexican voters have wanted to be co-responsible in the decisions to be taken... It will be through the leadership that I will exercise that we will be able to build the agreements in Congress.	211
Paul Johnson	In the past, the U.S. has shown its capacity to reinvent its gifts for leadership. During the 1970s, in the aftermath of the Nixon abdication and the Ford and Carter presidencies, the whole nation peered into the abyss, was horrified by what it saw and elected Ronald Reagan as president, which began a national resurgence.	211
Sheryl Sandberg	I don't pretend there aren't biological differences, but I don't believe the desire for leadership is hardwired biology, not the desire to win or excel. I believe that it's socialization, that we're socializing our daughters to nurture and our boys to lead.	211
Warren Bennis	One of the best teaching experiences Ed Schein and I had when we were teaching at MIT in the 1960s was inventing a course on leadership through film.	211
Martin O'Malley	Leadership is about making the right decision and the best decision before, sometimes, it becomes entirely popular.	211
Andrew Luck	I realize that as the quarterback, you have to assume some sort of leadership role because you have to talk in the huddle on every play, and you're essentially giving out orders to the team. But in my mind, I have to prove myself on the field before I can start asserting a leadership role.	211
Gene Green	I work closely with Hispanic leadership.	212
Margaret J. Wheatley	Most people associate command and control leadership with the military.	212
Mark McKinnon	Washington doesn't have just a spending problem, or just an entitlement problem, or just a taxing problem. We have a leadership problem. Fix that, and the first three problems are solved.	212
Najib Razak	For many years, Myanmar's leadership was largely shut out from the world of international diplomacy.	212
Robin S. Sharma	There is a new model of leadership in the world that rides on the premise that every single person in the organisation can be a leader. Titles are important for structure and order, but real power does not come from titles.	212
William Clay Ford, Jr.	Lewis Booth and Derrick Kuzak represent the very best of Ford and our culture and built a legacy of leadership, integrity and commitment to excellence that will benefit us for years to come.	212
Chris Gibson	People are starving for truth and leadership.	212
Vladimir Putin	I am the wealthiest man, not just in Europe, but in the whole world. I collect emotions. I am wealthy in that the people of Russia have twice entrusted me with the leadership of a great nation such as Russia - I believe that is my greatest wealth.	213
W. E. B. Du Bois	From the very first, it has been the educated and intelligent of the Negro people that have led and elevated the mass, and the sole obstacles that nullified and retarded their efforts were slavery and race prejudice; for what is slavery but the legalized survival of the unfit and the nullification of the work of natural internal leadership?	213
Ben Carson	I think one of the keys to leadership is recognizing that everybody has gifts and talents. A good leader will learn how to harness those gifts toward the same goal.	213
Daisaku Ikeda	Where there is an absence of international political leadership, civil society should step in to fill the gap, providing the energy and vision needed to move the world in a new and better direction.	213
Eric Schmidt	There is a science to managing high tech businesses, and it needs to be respected. One of them is that in technology businesses, leadership is temporary. It's constantly recycling. So the asset has limited lifetime.	213
Sheri L. Dew	You were born to lead as mothers and fathers, because nowhere is righteous leadership more crucial than in the family.	213
Chris Christie	If anybody ran a business like that they would be out of business quickly, and Barack Obama's leadership is driving this business, the United States of America, toward a fiscal cliff.	213
Margaret Heffernan	Making those around you feel invisible is the opposite of leadership.	213
Stephen Covey	Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success; leadership determines whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall.	214
Robert Dallek	Success in past U.S. conflicts has not been strictly the result of military leadership but rather the judgment of the president in choosing generals and setting broad strategy.	214
Sheryl Sandberg	If more women are in leadership roles, we'll stop assuming they shouldn't be.	214
Juan Williams	NPR editors and journalists found themselves caught in a game of trying to please a leadership team who did not want to hear stories on the air about conservatives, the poor, or anyone who didn't fit their profitable design of NPR as the official voice of college-educated, white, liberal-leaning, upper-income America.	214
Michael Arrington	I've always believed that government tends to screw up whatever it touches, but Obama in particular seemed different. He understood tech issues that left the other candidates bewildered. Part of it may be his age. But whatever the reason, I had real hope that he could help lead us into a new century of technology leadership and growth.	214
Gloria Steinem	Clearly no one knows what leadership has gone undiscovered in women of all races, and in black and other minority men.	215
David Ogilvy	Leaders grasp nettles.	215
Hubert H. Humphrey	Leadership in today's world requires far more than a large stock of gunboats and a hard fist at the conference table.	215
Madeleine Albright	But I do not believe that the world would be entirely different if there were more women leaders. Maybe if everybody in leadership was a woman, you might not get into the conflicts in the first place. But if you watch the women who have made it to the top, they haven't exactly been non-aggressive - including me.	215
Rick Santorum	In 2006 it was a horrible election year, and, you know, I lost. But I lost because I continued to be a constant conservative, and the last six years I was someone who was a national figure in the sense that I was the third ranking Republican in leadership and I had just run President Bush's campaign in Pennsylvania.	215
Jeff Fortenberry	The House of Representatives should not be locked down by the decided play of a few in leadership.	215
Stewart Butterfield	I can tell people a story that they believe in and get behind. So I'm good at the leadership part. But I've always said that I'm a terrible manager. I'm not good at giving feedback.	215
Robert Kiyosaki	Most businesses think that product is the most important thing, but without great leadership, mission and a team that deliver results at a high level, even the best product won't make a company successful.	216
Park Chan-wook	When I was growing up, we were taught in school that North Koreans, and especially the North Korean leadership, were all devils.	216
John Podhoretz	Nixon was an awful president in many ways, including in some of his foreign-policy choices. But he left no doubt that foreign policy and America's leadership in the world outside its borders was of paramount importance to him.	216
Stephen Covey	Leadership is a choice, not a position.	217
Howard Dean	There are no ideas in the Republican Party right now in the Congress. They're the party of no. They desperately need some intellectual leadership. And whatever you think of Newt Gingrich, he can supply intellectual leadership. So I hope he does run.	217
Tom Graves	What's great about our leadership is they welcome other ideas.	217
Sun Tzu	He who is prudent and lies in wait for an enemy who is not, will be victorious.	218
John Wooden	I think that in any group activity - whether it be business, sports, or family - there has to be leadership or it won't be successful.	218
William James	If you want a quality, act as if you already had it.	218
Chris Hadfield	I think there are lots of ways to exercise ambition and accomplish things using leadership without going into elected politics. So, categorically, I have no intention of going into elected politics. None.	218
Chris Christie	Now, do I think there has to be shared sacrifice among other nations in the world who want a stable and secure world? Absolutely, there has to be. But I don't think that America can ever abdicate its leadership role in the world because of who we are and where we've come from. We are the symbol for the world for freedom and liberty.	218
Jennifer Granholm	Sometimes leadership is planting trees under whose shade you'll never sit. It may not happen fully till after I'm gone. But I know that the steps we're taking are the right steps.	218
Donald Rumsfeld	In our system leadership is by consent, not command. To lead a President must persuade. Personal contacts and experiences help shape his thinking. They can be critical to his persuasiveness and thus to his leadership.	219
Nina Easton	Message to all you crazed parents desperately hiring tutors and padding your kid's thin resume: Chillax. Attending an elite college is no guarantee of leadership, life success, or earnings potential.	219
Wendy Kopp	I think the way to understand Teach for America is as a leadership development program.	219
Chris Gibson	We have to reform the entire political process. It's got to start with leadership by example.	219
Edgar Bronfman, Sr.	Much of what has gone wrong in the pursuit of Arab-Israeli peace is due to a lack of strong leadership, primarily among the Palestinians.	219
Margaret J. Wheatley	I think a major act of leadership right now, call it a radical act, is to create the places and processes so people can actually learn together, using our experiences.	220
Thomas Frank	We are watching industries crumble, Wall Street firms disappear, unemployment spike, and unprecedented government intervention. And our designated opinion leaders want to know: Is Obama up this week? Is he down? And is his leadership style more like Bill Clinton's, or Abraham Lincoln's?	220
Wendy Davis	I've never worried about payback. People are hungry for leadership that's not afraid of political consequence.	220
Wendy Kopp	We are working essentially to build a leadership force of folks who will, during their first two years of teaching, actually put their kids on a different trajectory - not just survive as a new teacher, but actually help close the achievement gap for their kids.	220
Bill Flores	Someday, somehow, the leadership of Planned Parenthood will have to answer for their callous disregard of the sanctity of human life. In the meantime, I am relieved that the Bryan abortion facility has gone out of business.	220
Jonathan Sacks	If we are to negotiate the coming years safely, we may need a new kind of leadership. To put it more precisely, we need the rediscovery of an ancient kind of leadership that has rarely been given the prominence it deserves. I mean the leader as teacher.	220
Mo Ibrahim	For citizens to become fully engaged in holding their leadership to account, accurate information is required to see where action is needed, to measure the results of policies and programmes, to build support for courageous decisions and to consolidate political legitimacy.	220
Robert Kennedy	In government, our chief executives have been lawyers. The great majority of our cabinets and congresses are and have been men trained in the law. They have provided the leadership and the statecraft and the store of strength when it was needed.	221
David Cameron	Yes, America must do the right thing, but to provide moral leadership, America must do it in the right way, too.	221
John Updike	A leader is one who, out of madness or goodness, volunteers to take upon himself the woe of the people. There are few men so foolish, hence the erratic quality of leadership in the world.	221
Mark McKinnon	As in nature, politics abhors a vacuum. Without a strong voice for more moderate leadership, the Tea Party is filling that vacuum.	221
Michael T. Flynn	There is no substitute for American leadership and exceptionalism.	221
Paul Manafort	The Republican Party is a composition of the members of the party and not just the leadership.	221
Wendy Kopp	The mission that unites all of the programs of the Teach For All global network is that of cultivating the leadership capacity critical to ultimately ensuring educational opportunity for all.	221
Dan Webster	As a former minority leader who became the first Republican Speaker of the House in Florida since Reconstruction, I know that leadership is not an easy task.	222
Lee Iacocca	I forgot to shake hands and be friendly. It was an important lesson about leadership.	222
Paul Ryan	Hope and change? We're not doing that anymore. They're doing attack and blame. And so, I just think people are going to see through this. They want real leadership. They want us to get this country on the right track.	222
Rahm Emanuel	Under Superintendent Johnson's leadership, our police department is on a path to earn the respect of every community in the City of Chicago.	222
Martin O'Malley	We have now under President Obama's leadership had 29 months in a row of private sector job growth. That stretch of positive private sector job growth hasn't happened since 2005. We still have a long way to go, but we are moving in the right direction.	222
Michelle Bachelet	As a vibrant force in civil society, women continue to press for their rights, equal participation in decision-making, and the upholding of the principles of the revolution by the highest levels of leadership in Egypt.	222
Mitchell Baker	Especially if you don't have a job that's providing fulfillment in your technical expertise, there is a lot of reward to working on a very smart and demanding community that will respect you and will give you leadership and authority based on what you do.	222
John C. Maxwell	I vividly remember a conversation I had many years ago in 1974, which marked a turning point in my leadership journey. I was sitting at a Holiday Inn with my friend, Kurt Campmeyer, when he asked me if I had a personal growth plan. I didn't. In fact, I didn't even know you were supposed to have one.	223
Henry Miller	The real leader has no need to lead - he is content to point the way.	223
Paul Gosar	Leadership has a price.	224
Rush Limbaugh	There's a void of leadership in a lot of Washington. I think one of the reasons why there's so much angst across the country.	224
Vicente Fox	What nourishes us at home and in school is what inspires us. When we get awareness and learn about the great potential that we all human beings have, we are able to discover our leadership.	224
William Hague	It's really necessary for the United States to continue to give strong leadership to the Middle East peace process, supported by European countries at the same time.	224
Jack Canfield	In one of my recent books, 'The Success Principles,' I taught 64 lessons that help people achieve what they want out of life. From taking nothing less than 100 percent responsibility for your life to empowering others, these are the fundamentals to success - and to great leadership.	225
Bill Flores	I think the comments about me being a shill for leadership are beyond the pale.	225
Robert Dallek	Once the public loses confidence in a president's leadership at a time of war, once they don't trust him anymore, once his credibility is sharply diminished, how does he get it back?	226
Robin S. Sharma	Leadership is a mindset that shifts from being a victim to creating results. Any one of us can demonstrate leadership in our work and within our lives.	226
Jeff Bezos	Market leadership can translate directly to higher revenue, higher profitability, greater capital velocity, and correspondingly stronger returns on invested capital.	301
Madeleine Albright	Maybe if everybody in leadership was a woman, you might not get into the conflicts in the first place. But if you watch the women who have made it to the top, they haven't exactly been non-aggressive - including me.	301
Alan Dershowitz	It simply cannot be disputed that for decades the Palestinian leadership was more interested in there not being a Jewish state than in there being a Palestinian state.	302
Robin S. Sharma	My best investment, as cliched as this sounds, is the money I've spent developing myself, via books, workshops and coaching. Leadership begins within, and to have a better career, start by building a better you.	302
Bill Flores	I have disagreements with leadership, I have disagreements with the speaker, but I have those one-on-one.	302
David Cameron	I've said I'll stand for a full second term, but I think after that it will be time for new leadership. Terms are like Shredded Wheat - two are wonderful but three might just be too many.	303
Mark McKinnon	Republicans working in leadership and the trenches are largely old, white, male, out-of-touch, out of ideas, technology averse, and living in the past.	303
Nancy Pelosi	I would say that one of the things that encouraged me so much when I became elected to the leadership was the letters I received from fathers of daughters, saying that, 'My daughter can now do many more things because of what you did.'	303
Paul Gosar	Our leadership in D.C. should be bold and determined.	303
Wendy Kopp	School boards can be a steppingstone to higher forms of political leadership.	303
Chris Gibson	Mary Jo and I have three teenagers who are in their last years at home. In addition, I was just offered and accepted a position with Williams College as a visiting lecturer on leadership beginning in February 2017, and anticipate accepting other academic positions shortly.	303
Sherrod Brown	If we expect to continue our leadership in the global economy, we must invest in a long-term transportation plan -f or both highways and transit programs. Too many of our roads, bridges, and railways have fallen into disrepair.	303
Robin S. Sharma	Anyone can show exceptional leadership ability in easy times. When all's going to plan, anyone can be inspirational/excellent/innovative and strong. The real question is how do you show up when everything's falling apart?	304
Rick Santorum	There are certain skills that business people have that are - that are, in fact, helpful in - when it comes to being in political leadership.	304
Norman Schwarzkopf	I've got to tell you what, the soldier doesn't fight very hard for a leader who is going to shoot him, okay, on his own whim. That's not what military leadership is all about.	305
Donald Rumsfeld	Presidential leadership needn't always cost money. Look for low- and no-cost options. They can be surprisingly effective.	305
Eric Hoffer	Charlatanism of some degree is indispensable to effective leadership.	305
Paul Ryan	What's missing is leadership in the White House. And the story that Barack Obama does tell, forever shifting blame to the last administration, is getting old. The man assumed office almost four years ago - isn't it about time he assumed responsibility?	305
Tony Dungy	I got put into leadership roles very early in life from fifth grade, sixth grade. I always ended up being the quarterback or the leader of the sports teams, and it's kind of benefiting me now.	305
Douglas Alexander	Under Ed Miliband's leadership, we are changing both our party's structures and culture.	305
James Lankford	ISIS has leadership, just like al Qaeda has leadership. It's important to be able to eliminate the individuals that are leading the organization.	305
Napoleon Bonaparte	A throne is only a bench covered with velvet.	306
George Packer	When I interviewed Paul Bremer in his office, he had almost no books on his shelves. He had a couple of management books, like 'Leadership' by Rudolph Giuliani. I didn't take it as an encouraging sign.	306
Tony Dungy	You're born with some things inside you that will allow you to lead, but I think you have to take the bull by the horns. You have to want that leadership position, and then there are things you can do to develop that.	306
Henri Nouwen	Most Christian leadership is exercised by people who do not know how to develop healthy, intimate relationships and have opted for power and control instead. Many Christian empire-builders have been people unable to give and receive love.	307
Leon Panetta	When the president went around the table to the country's national security leadership, Hillary was clear: We have to go get bin Laden. And our Special Operations Forces did just that.	307
Ted Cruz	The American president has a peculiar leadership responsibility to speak out for freedom.	307
Mahatma Gandhi	I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people.	308
Monica Crowley	American presidential leadership never goes out of style.	308
Robert Reich	We never used to blink at taking a leadership role in the world. And we understood leadership often required something other than drones and bombs. We accepted global leadership not just for humanitarian reasons, but also because it was in our own best interest. We knew we couldn't isolate ourselves from trouble. There was no place to hide.	308
Bono	Mandela's heroism is the heroism of a man who suffered so badly for what he thought of as freedom. And yet when he had the upper hand he has this incredible self-control and these incredible leadership qualities.	309
Viggo Mortensen	One of the main ways that leadership stays in power is by, in various ways, convincing people that they should just let those who are in government govern: 'Trust us. Trust me. Just let us take care of things. Stay out of it.' Your opinions don't really matter. You are isolated. You are insignificant.	309
Martin Jacques	The world is fortunate - for the time being, at least - that it has an American president in Obama who is prepared to take a conciliatory and concessive attitude towards America's decline and that it has a Chinese leadership which has been extremely cautious about expressing an opinion, let alone flexing its muscles.	309
John C. Maxwell	Inability to make decisions is one of the principal reasons executives fail. Deficiency in decision-making ranks much higher than lack of specific knowledge or technical know-how as an indicator of leadership failure.	310
Bill Dedman	In Illinois, where legislators are paid $45,000, plus as much as $10,000 for leadership work, about half are full-time politicians.	310
Justin Trudeau	Nobody knows better than I do what the pressures of party leadership can do to a young family. It tore mine apart.	310
Kellyanne Conway	Voters go into the ballot box with big ideas in their mind: leadership, change, experience, hope.	310
Paul Ryan	We need leadership. We don't need a doubling down on the failed politics of the past.	310
Wendy Kopp	If we're going to see sustainable results from all the other investments we're making in education, we need to build leadership capacity in each and every country.	310
Madeleine M. Kunin	Women in leadership cannot cry without raising a storm of commentary.	310
Simon Sinek	The cost of leadership is self-interest.	311
Lech Walesa	We were hoping Obama would reclaim moral leadership for America. That failed.	311
Rob Lowe	I never get bored talking about themes dealing with ambition, leadership and what it means to be an American. I love that stuff. I just love it. I've loved it ever since I was on 'The West Wing.'	311
Robin S. Sharma	I bought my own home in 2004. It's a sanctuary for my family and a place of peace and calm. It's key for anyone committed to leadership and success to avoid the noise and focus on their best opportunities.	311
Rush Limbaugh	Character matters; leadership descends from character.	311
Ben Horowitz	Leadership is hard to train on.	312
Eliot Spitzer	I think President Obama could have handled politics and policies differently. But he has been decisive, strong, and consistent - important qualities in a president. Mitt Romney is indeed an Etch A Sketch, the antithesis of leadership.	312
Monica Crowley	If you have small-government, traditional values, you may be considered by your own leadership to be an enemy of the state.	312
Phil Gingrey	I think that our leadership, Mitch McConnell and John Boehner, are taking the right approach.	312
Ted Deutch	This is not a political issue. I know Florida's leadership has talked about a real commitment to helping our veterans. Now it's time for them to show it.	312
David Ignatius	The nation's chronic weakness is its political system, which is nearing dysfunction. If the U.S. can elect better political leadership, it should be able to manage problems better than most competitors.	313
Thomas Fuller	In fair weather prepare for foul.	313
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam	For success of any mission, it is necessary to have creative leadership. Creative leadership is vital for government, non-governmental organisations as well as for industries.	314
John Ortberg	Churches need to figure out how they will address the spiritual lives of their staffs and leadership teams.	314
Ariel Sharon	The government, under my leadership, will act to implement the rule of law and to maintain the independence of the judicial system, which is one of the pillars of maintaining a democratic system.	315
Elizabeth Esty	I do think the U.S. has a moral and political leadership role to play.	315
David Oyelowo	If you look at your companies, and half of your staff are not female, and a decent percentage of them are not people of color, then you are part of the problem because you need people working for you and you need people in positions of leadership who can exercise their bias and who can exercise their perspective.	315
John C. Maxwell	Everything rises and falls on leadership.	316
George Packer	Inspiration is an underexamined part of political life and presidential leadership.	316
Satya Nadella	One thing we've talked a lot about, even in the first leadership meeting, was, what's the purpose of our leadership team? The framework we came up with is the notion that our purpose is to bring clarity, alignment and intensity.	316
Barack Obama	The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I, therefore, intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt.	317
W. E. B. Du Bois	In the South, there was absence of any leadership corresponding in breadth and courage to that of Abraham Lincoln.	317
Buzz Aldrin	Going back to the moon is not visionary in restoring space leadership for America. Like its Apollo predecessor, it will prove to be a dead end littered with broken spacecraft, broken dreams and broken policies.	317
George Vecsey	All our lives are enriched by the leadership and excellence and confidence of female athletes, whether the Mia Hamms and Maya Moores we know or the field hockey, lacrosse and track and field athletes we do not necessarily know.	317
Robin S. Sharma	I have spent years as a leadership coach to the very wealthy and have been able to get behind the eyes of some of the world's best, studying the minute details of what makes a person great.	317
Abdullah II of Jordan	It's a tremendous responsibility to be direct descendants of the prophet Muhammad. This family has had the burden of leadership on its shoulders for 1,400 years. I'm not going to drop the ball on my shift.	317
Barton Gellman	On March 12, 2004, acting attorney general James B. Comey and the Justice Department's top leadership reached the brink of resignation over electronic surveillance orders that they believed to be illegal.	318
Tony Dungy	The book is actually called 'A Mentor Leader, a Different Way to Lead.' It really talks about my experience in the way I tried lead our football team, things that I learned from, basically, the coaches that I played for and my parents about leadership. And it is a little bit different, counter to maybe what society says about great leaders.	318
Mike McCaul	The sad fact is, because we've had a failed policy and failed leadership, now we're having to rely on Russians and the Iranians to go into Syria to fight and destroy ISIS.	319
Michael T. Flynn	The world has lost faith in American leadership, and the threats are mounting.	320
Barack Obama	In a world of complex threats, our security and leadership depends on all elements of our power - including strong and principled diplomacy.	321
Steven Spielberg	Lincoln's leadership is based on a number of precepts, but my favorite one is that he acted in the name, and for the good, of the people.	321
Tim Tebow	I'll practice as good as I can, but I know that I play even better, with the qualities I have - leadership, my ability to make something happen in games, winning.	321
Malala Yousafzai	I fully support U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in his Global Education First Initiative and the work of U.N. Special Envoy for Global Education Gordon Brown and the respectful president of the U.N. General Assembly Vuk Jeremic. I thank them for the leadership they continue to give.	322
John Fleming	Louisiana's a very conservative state. When we've ever polled this, we've found that they like conservative reforms. They want us to fight back against our leadership and Democrats, so it's very consistent.	322
Michel de Montaigne	No wind serves him who addresses his voyage to no certain port.	324
Michael Bloomberg	I've been a Democrat, I've been a Republican, and I eventually became an independent because I don't believe either party has a monopoly on good ideas or strong leadership.	325
Simon Sinek	Leadership is a way of thinking, a way of acting and, most importantly, a way of communicating.	326
Charles Kennedy	Good political leadership for me involves getting the big decisions right - however difficult, however controversial, however potentially divisive - and then being able to take people with you.	326
Simon Sinek	One of the best paradoxes of leadership is a leader's need to be both stubborn and open-minded. A leader must insist on sticking to the vision and stay on course to the destination. But he must be open-minded during the process.	401
George W. Bush	I have a different vision of leadership. A leadership is someone who brings people together.	402
Wendy Kopp	Teach For America is working hard to be one significant source of the leadership we need.	402
Lao Tzu	Be the chief but never the lord.	403
Tzipi Livni	I believe most of the public should be involved in the election of the leadership.	404
Wendy Kopp	Fostering the leadership necessary for transformational outcomes in education is hard work, and in countries around the world, there is a constant search for easier solutions.	404
Jeremy Corbyn	For the absolute avoidance of doubt, my leadership will be about unity, drawing on all the talents - with women representing half of the shadow cabinet - and working together at every level of the party.	405
John Fleming	We think our leadership has been too timid to go after corruption, and often times, they bow to the liberal progressive demands of the White House instead of standing up for our values.	405
Wendy Kopp	The idea that computers can ever replace teachers and schools reveals a deep lack of understanding about the role leadership plays in student success.	406
Paul Ryan	What we heard today was not fiscal leadership from our Commander-in-Chief, what we heard today was a political broadside from our Campaigner-in-Chief.	407
John Fleming	If we're going to change leadership, we need to do it in a very systematic and organized way.	407
Bryant H. McGill	The world is starving for original and decisive leadership.	408
David Suzuki	If America wants to retain its position as a global power, its president must listen to the people and show strong leadership at this turning point in human history.	409
Bill Flores	The mission statement of the RSC is to foster a constitutionally bound limited government, it's to have a strong national defense, it's to protect private property rights and it's to support American values. That's what the mission statement is. There's nothing in the mission statement about trying to hold leadership accountable.	410
Jeremy Corbyn	If the leadership can't win a debate, then we should show true leadership and implement the democratic will of our party.	410
John Fleming	America is much better than the leadership we have in Washington.	410
Noam Chomsky	The Washington leadership has put aside non-proliferation programmes and devoted its energies and resources to driving the country to war by extraordinary deceit, then trying to manage the catastrophe it created in Iraq.	411
Rick Perlstein	Leaders are for calling people to their better angels, for helping guide them to a kind of sterner, more mature sense of what we need to do. To me, Reagan's brand of leadership was what I call 'a liturgy of absolution.' He absolved Americans almost in a priestly role to contend with sin. Who wouldn't want that?	411
Jimmy Carter	Ever since Israel has been a nation the United States has provided the leadership. Every president down to the ages has done this in a fairly balanced way, including George Bush senior, Gerald Ford, and others including myself and Bill Clinton.	413
Enrique Pena Nieto	Mexico has lost its leadership, and a lot of that has to do with its poor performance and the lack of better results in our country.	413
David Cameron	I think the country requires fresh leadership. I do not think I can be the captain to take the country to its next destination.	414
Murray Rothbard	By the 1890s, the leading Wall Street bankers were becoming increasingly disgruntled with their own creation, the National Banking System... while the banking system was partially centralized under their leadership, it was not centralized enough.	414
Tim Kaine	If women are not accorded equal place in the leadership of the Catholic Church and the other great world religions, they will always be treated as inferiors in earthly matters as well.	414
Cory Gardner	The Trans-Pacific Partnership has the potential to reshape America's relationship with the nations of the Pacific Rim, enhance U.S. leadership in this critically important region, and provide a major boost to our economy.	414
Buzz Aldrin	Absolutely the United States should lead in space, for the survival of the United States. It's inspiring for the next generation. If we lose leadership, then we'll be using Chinese capability to inspire Americans.	416
Deepak Chopra	I think we need the feminine qualities of leadership, which include attention to aesthetics and the environment, nurturing, affection, intuition and the qualities that make people feel safe and cared for.	417
Jesse Jackson	Leadership has a harder job to do than just choose sides. It must bring sides together.	418
Travis Bradberry	Too many talk about a company's leadership, referring to the senior most executives in the organization. They are just that: senior executives. Leadership doesn't automatically happen when you reach a certain pay grade. Hopefully you find it there, but there are no guarantees.	420
Travis Bradberry	Leadership and management are not synonymous.	421
David Cameron	There definitely comes a time where a fresh pair of eyes and fresh leadership would be good, and the Conservative Party has got some great people coming up - the Theresa Mays, and the George Osbornes, and the Boris Johnsons.	422
George Takei	Up until the time I was cast in 'Star Trek,' the roles were pretty shallow - thin, stereotyped, one-dimensional roles. I knew this character was a breakthrough role, certainly for me as an individual actor but also for the image of an Asian character: no accent, a member of the elite leadership team.	426
Nancy Gibbs	There are many things that matter much more than an editor's gender in shaping the direction of the leadership.	426
Mitt Romney	Central to America's rise to global leadership is our Judeo-Christian tradition with the vision of the goodness and possibilities of every human life.	501
Paul Ryan	Millions of young Americans have graduated from college during the Obama presidency, ready to use their gifts and get moving in life. Half of them can't find the work they studied for, or any work at all. So here's the question: Without a change in leadership, why would the next four years be any different from the last four years?	502
Joseph B. Wirthlin	Priesthood lessons are regularly devoted to topics of family leadership, and quorum leaders everywhere are feeling more and more their responsibility to teach and train their quorum members to be better husbands and fathers.	503
Robert Dallek	As someone who has more than a passing acquaintance with most of the 20th century presidents, I have often thought that their accomplishments have little staying power in shaping popular views of their leadership.	503
Carly Fiorina	The highest calling of leadership is to challenge the status quo and unlock the potential of others. We need a leader who will lead the resurgence of this great nation and unlock its potential once again.	507
Paul Ryan	So here's the question: Without a change in leadership, why would the next four years be any different from the last four years?	513
Buzz Aldrin	The way I see it, what is going to come out of the moon activities is a respect for U.S. leadership.	518
Robert Kiyosaki	Military school was great and especially great for leadership and then I spent two years in Vietnam.	521
Mo Ibrahim	The Nobel Prize is worth $1.5 million, but that's not the issue. Do the distinguished scientists who win the Nobel Prize need the money? Probably not. The honor is more important the money, and that's the case with the prize for African leadership as well.	521
Deepak Chopra	There are very few good examples of effective, nurturing leadership that unlocks people's potential or even enthusiasm.	524
Mitt Romney	My leadership will end the Obama era and begin a new era of American prosperity.	603
Barack Obama	We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That's not leadership. That's not going to happen.	610
Ezra Taft Benson	One of the joys of working with boys is that you get your pay as you go along. You can observe the results of your leadership daily... Such satisfaction cannot be purchased at any price; it must be earned.	614
Elliott Abrams	As the Palestinian leadership never seems to pay any penalty for its words, America's seriousness about the peace process is in doubt.	616
Robert Kiyosaki	People invest in businesses that they believe have the leadership, mission and team to grow and operate profitably.	617
Nicola Sturgeon	I feel comfortable in a position of leadership, but that's not to say I feel complacent about it. I take it incredibly seriously.	622
Joyce Meyer	When you're in a leadership role, you can never please all of the people all of the time. There's also a lot of responsibility that goes along with it that others may not realize.	705
Bernie Sanders	We need leadership in this country, which will improve the lives of working families, the children, the elderly, the sick and the poor. We need leadership which brings our people together and makes us stronger.	803
Bernie Sanders	Any objective observer will conclude that - based on her ideas and her leadership - Hillary Clinton must become the next president of the United States.	807
Donald Trump	I have the right temperament. I have the right leadership. I've built an incredible company. I went to a great school. I came out - I built an incredible company. I wrote the number one selling business book of all time: 'Trump: The Art of the Deal.'	813
Hillary Clinton	America is stronger because of President Obama's leadership, and I'm better because of his friendship.	813
Barack Obama	We also can't try to take over and rebuild every country that falls into crisis. That's not leadership; that's a recipe for quagmire, spilling American blood and treasure that ultimately weakens us. It's the lesson of Vietnam, of Iraq - and we should have learned it by now.	825
Rush Limbaugh	Nobody in a leadership level in American politics is trying to inspire the American people. Everybody needs to be goosed. The vast majority of people are not self-starters.	1102
Hillary Clinton	I helped to restore America's leadership.	1108
Rush Limbaugh	The Republican leadership thinks the best way to avoid losing elections is to let the Democrats win every controversial issue.	1201
