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.

For every good reason there is to lie, there is a better reason to tell the truth.

A good leader must be fair.

It is always better for a leader to be revered rather than feared.

A leader is best
When people barely know he exists
Of a good leader, who talks little,
When his work is done, his aim fulfilled,
They will say, “We did this ourselves.

A good leader doesn't get stuck behind a desk.
