Leadership is one of the most observed and least understood phenomena on earth.

In real life, the most practical advice for leaders is not to treat pawns like pawns, nor princes like princes, but all persons like persons.

Such leadership occurs when one or more persons engage with others in such a way that leaders and followers raise one another to higher levels of motivation and morality.

Leadership, in short, is power governed by principle, directed toward raising people to their highest levels of personal motive and social morality.

The ultimate test of practical leadership is the realization of intended, real change that meets people's enduring needs.

The practice of leadership is not the same as the exercise of power.

Divorced from ethics, leadership is reduced to management and politics to mere technique.

Leaders are not pale reflectors of major social conflicts; they play up some, play down others, ignore still others.
