LeadershipThose who claim to lead the masses must resolutely refuse to be led by them, if we want to avoid mob law and desire ordered progress for the country. I believe that mere protestation of one’s opinion and surrender to the mass opinion is not only not enough, but in matters of vital importance, leaders must act contrary to the mass of opinions if it does not commend itself to their reason.
- M.K.Gandhi“Those who carry on great public schemes must be proof against the most fatiguing delays, the most mortifying disappointments, the most shocking insults and what is most of all, the presumptuous judgment of the ignorant”
- Edmund Burke
thc_ctms 29S451_Oct2010
LeadershipLeadership: “ In every field of human endeavour, he that is first must perpetually live in the white light of publicity. Whether the leadership be vested in a man or manufactured product, emulation or envy are ever at work. In art, in literature, in music, in industry , the reward and punishment are always the same. The reward is widespread recognition; the punishment, fierce denial and destruction…If the leader truly leads, he remains-the leader…That which is good or great makes itself known, no matter how loud the clamour or denial. That which deserves to live, lives”.
( from an advertisement of Cadillac Motor car Company on January 2, 1915)
