Quote by Barbara Kellerman

“Bad leaders do not typically wake up one morning and say, “Golly gee, I’ve been bad. I need to change my ways.” They will stop being bad only if someone else or something else stops them. And if nothing stops them and no one stops them, they will go from bad to worse.”

“What Pa did doesn't represent all of who he is. There's a bigger picture. Amma said something to me once, when I found a drawing someone had done of her when she was a teenager: In life we wear a hundred faces - the bawling infant, the happy child, the starry-eyed youth. Each face belongs to a different life. I didn't fully understand it then. But maybe I do now. A lifetime is made up of dozens of lives, tied together only by shared memory. Who I was when I was a baby isn't the same person I was at age ten, much less who I am now. Who Pa was in his twenties isn't the same man he is today. And I have to believe that the man he is today shouldn't have to die for the mistakes of the other man who wore his face twelve years ago.”

“We spend our lives seeking comfort, and when we find it, we bury ourselves deep within it. But on the odd occasion, when all is quiet, something will come along that’ll rip us out of the ground and throw us into the unknown. A place where everything means nothing, nothing means everything and where comforts cease to be. It’s hard, there's no denying that, but remember, often the hardest and most unexpected situations can encourage the best type of change, growth.”
