"You have to comply, you have to..." - Quote by Colin Powell

“Leaders honor their core values, but they are flexible in how they execute them.”

“There is no such thing as an unimportant person in an organization.”

“If you are black, if you are Puerto Rican or Hispanic, be proud of that. But don't let it become a problem. Let it become somebody else's problem.”

“And so we shall have to do more than register and more than vote; we shall have to create leaders who embody virtues we can respect, who have moral and ethical principles we can applaud with enthusiasm.”

“We see many instances of cities going down like sinking ships to their destruction. There have been such wrecks in the past and there surely will be others in the future, caused by the wickedness of captains and crews alike. For these are guilty men, whose sin is supreme ignorance of what matters most.”

“The good will of the governed will be starved if not fed by the good deeds of the governors.”

“If the people are governed by laws and punishment is used to maintain order, they will try to avoid the punishment but have no sense of shame. If they are governed by virtue and rules of propriety are used to maintain order, they will have a sense of shame and will become good as well.”

“It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right.”

“Liberty never meant the license to do anything at will.”
