Leadership does not depend on being right.

As we continue to make great progress in the war on terror, now more than ever, it is important that members of the international community stand-by and bolster the efforts of the emerging diplomatic leaders in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Myself, I don't think you will ever get security in the Mideast until you have what on the surface appears to be fair to both sides. You have to have leaders committed to peace, on both sides. One side can't impose a solution.

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.

Leadership cannot just go along to get along. Leadership must meet the moral challenge of the day.

Leadership has a harder job to do than just choose sides. It must bring sides together.

Time is neutral and does not change things. With courage and initiative, leaders change things.

Leaders are visionaries with a poorly developed sense of fear and no concept of the odds against them.

Military leaders aren't made. They are born. To be a good leader, you have to have something in your character to cause people to follow you.

I am not unaware that leaders betray, and sell out, and play false.

So, poetry becomes a means for useful dialogue between people who are not only unknown, but mute to each other. It produces a dialogue among people that guards all of us against manipulation by our so-called leaders.

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.

Bad leadership during the past years has cast on our Party the shadow of great and grave burdens.

Educationists should build the capacities of the spirit of inquiry, creativity, entrepreneurial and moral leadership among students and become their role model.

If there is such a thing as good leadership, it is to give a good example. I have to do so for all the Ikea employees.

Leaders must pick causes they won't abandon easily, remain committed despite setbacks, and communicate their big ideas over and over again in every encounter.
