The quality of a leader cannot be judged by the answers he gives, but by the questions he asks.

In the military, they give medals for people who are willing to sacrifice themselves so that others may survive. In business, we give bonuses to people who sacrifice others.

Leaders volunteer to go first into danger. Their willingness to sacrifice for us is the reason we're inspired to follow.

We invest in things like the future, like our children, like education. In other words, we invest in things that we understand we will not see an immediate return of investment but everybody knows it will have a positive impact and you can easily measure it over the course of time. Your why is exactly the same thing.

Truly effective and inspiring leaders aren’t actually driven to lead people; they are driven to serve them.

We have no choice, we must all die. How we live, however, is entirely of our choosing.

Don't freak yourself out by what other people have. They don't have what you've got.
