"Anyone who influences others is a leader...." - Quote by Charles R Swindoll

“Without a quest, life is quickly reduced to bleak black and wimpy white, a diet too bland to get anybody out of bed in the morning. A quest fuels our fire. It refuses to let us drift downstream gathering debris.”

“One of the marks of maturity is the ability to disagree without becoming disagreeable”

“Authentic men aren't afraid to show affection, release their feelings, hug their children, cry when they're sad, admit it when they're wrong, and ask for help when they need it.”

“The best of all teachers is the one who helps people so that eventually they don't need him.”

“He has the power to render us happy or unhappy; to make our service light or burdensome; a pleasure or a toil. Say that his power lies in words and looks; in things so slight and insignificant that it is impossible to add and count 'em up: what then? The happiness he gives, is quite as great as if it cost a fortune.”

“The best way a mentor can prepare another leader is to expose him or her to other great people.”

“Every form of power comes down to language. In law, there's all kinds of words you don't know if you're not a lawyer and that gives them power. In business, it's the same thing.”

“Money has always been in politics. And I'm not sure you'd want money to be completely out of politics.”

“A positive state of mind is not merely good for you, it benefits everyone with whom you come into contact, literally changing the world.”
