"In the end, people are persuaded not..." - Quote by John C Maxwell

“If you are a leader, you should never forget that everyone needs encouragement. And everyone who receives it - young or old, successful or less-than-successful, unknown or famous - is changed by it.”

“Leaders create and inspire new leaders by instilling faith in their leadership abilities and helping them develop and hone leadership skills they don't know they possess.”

“Most people don't like change. They revolt against it unless they can clearly see the advantage it brings. For that reason, when good leaders prepare to take action or make changes, they take people through a process to get them ready for it.”

“Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.”

“It is the first rule in oratory that a man must appear such as he would persuade others to be: and that can be accomplished only by the force of his life.”

“A good symbol is the best argument, and is a missionary to persuade thousands.”

“To know whom to write for is to know how to write.”

“An honest tale speeds best being plainly told.”

“It is not sufficient to know what one ought to say, but one must also know how to say it.”
