Leadership is a privilege to better the lives of others. It is not an opportunity to satisfy personal greed.

I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death.

The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might well arouse the envy of the gods.

Life is a succession of moments, to live each one is to succeed.

You can be comfortable or courageous, but you cannot be both.

Williams-Nelson
