"If you want to attract people, you..." - Quote by John C Maxwell

“The measure of a leader is not the number of people who serve him, but the number of people he serves.”

“If you don't have the ability to see when to stand up and the conviction to do it, you'll never be an effective leader.”

“We won't fully experience joy until we've answered life's biggest question: Why am I here?”

“Catherine [...] enjoyed her usual happiness with Henry Tilney, listening with sparkling eyes to everything he said; and, in finding him irresistible, becoming so herself.”

“Mr. Darcy began to feel the danger of paying Elizabeth too much attention.”

“If a woman conceals her affection with the same skill from the object of it, she may lose the opportunity of fixing him; and it will then be but poor consolation to believe the world equally in the dark. There is so much of gratitude or vanity in almost any attachment, that it is not safe to leave any to itself. We can all begin ‘freely’- as light preference is natural enough; but there are very few of us who have a heart enough to be really in love without encouragement.”

“What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives acts and experiences otherwise than we do?”

“A friend, therefore, is a sort of paradox in nature. I who alone am, I who see nothing in nature whose existence I can affirm with equal evidence to my own, behold now the semblance of my being, in all its height, variety, and curiosity, reiterated in a foreign form; so that a friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature.”

“The time you spend grieving over a man should never exceed the amount of time you actually spent with him.”
