I find the idea of today's icons being teenagers incredibly uninspiring.
If you think you're a leader and you turn around and no one is following you, then you're simply out for a walk.
The best way to lead people into the future is to connect with them deeply in the present.
It always takes a group of people working together with a common purpose in an atmosphere of trust and collaboration to get extraordinary things done.
Leadership is a relationship between those who aspire to lead and those who choose to follow.
Leaders strengthen credibility by demonstrating that they are not in it for themselves, instead they have the interests of the institution, department, or team and its constituents at heart. Being a servant may not be what many leaders had in mind when they chose to take responsibility for the vision and direction of their organization or team - but serving others is the most glorious and rewarding of all leadership tasks.
Leadership isn’t the private reserve of a few charismatic men and women. It’s a process ordinary people use when they’re bringing forth the best from themselves and others. Liberate the leader in everyone, and extraordinary things happen.

I'm not really a conspiracy nut, but I think if I went down a slightly different route in my life instead of meeting and marrying the person I met, I may have gone down this other direction and got myself stuck in my head with my ideas and my thoughts and I'm into UFOs and paranormal subject matter.
Good temper is an estate for life.
I became a vegetarian out of concern for animals, but I wasn't a vegetarian long before I realized there's something to that. I don't think I would have worked for the past five years probably were it not for my vegetarian diet.
