Fear of difference is fear of life itself.

When leadership rises to genius it has the power of transforming, of transforming experience into power. And that is what experience is for, to be made into power. The great leader creates as well as directs power.

Unity, not uniformity, must be our aim.

Power-over is resorted to time without number because people will not wait for the slower process of education.

Conflict is resolved not through compromise, but through invention.

The leader is one who can organize the experience of the group ... and thus get the full power of the group. The leader makes the team. This is pre-eminently the leadership quality - the ability to organize all the forces there are in an enterprise and make them serve a common purpose.

Experience may be hard but we claim its gifts because they are real, even though our feet bleed on its stones.
