The educator must believe in the potential power of his pupil, and he must employ all his art in seeking to bring his pupil to experience this power.
Alfred Adler, Austrian Psychologist (1870-1937)
What should exist? To me, that's the most exciting question imaginable. What do we need that we don't have? How can we realize our potential?
Paul Allen, American Businessman (1953-  )
One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.
Maya Angelou, American Poet (1928-  )
Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker series also shows the potential of lighter fantastic fiction. I read the first, and listened to a tape of a later one, and it's fun.

All of our children have so much potential. All of our children deserve a chance at life.

The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn't think they could learn before, and so in a sense it is all about potential.
Steve Ballmer, American Businessman (1956-  )
If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be 'meetings.'
Dave Barry, American Journalist (1947-  )
What is their potential for evil; what is their potential for wickedness? That's the only time that those characters become interesting to watch.
Jennifer Beals, American Actress (1963-  )
You can make yourself feel better about yourself if you project your shadow side, if you project your own potential for evil onto someone else. By annihilating them and, therefore, your shadow, you bring yourself into some state of purity or reformation.
Jennifer Beals, American Actress (1963-  )
Untapped potential is the difference between where a person is now and where he or she can be.
Bo Bennett, American Businessman (1972-  )
Value people on their potential, not on their history.
Bo Bennett, American Businessman (1972-  )
Every day, people settle for less than they deserve. They are only partially living or at best living a partial life. Every human being has the potential for greatness.
Bo Bennett, American Businessman (1972-  )
A good leader is one who can tell another how to reach his or her potential; a great leader is one who can help another discover this potential for him or herself.
Bo Bennett, American Businessman (1972-  )
We have a powerful potential in out youth, and we must have the courage to change old ideas and practices so that we may direct their power toward good ends.
