“I say, of the Congress, then, this - that its aims are mistaken, that the spirit in which it proceeds towards their accomplishment is not a spirit of sincerity and whole-heartedness, and that the methods it has chosen are not the right methods, and the leaders in whom it trusts, not the right sort of men to be leaders; - in brief, that we are at present the blind led, if not by the blind, at any rate by the one-eyed.” IfsMenWholeSpiritLeaderAimMethodBlindRateCongressChosenAccomplishmentSincerityMistaken Author:Sri Aurobindo
“True greatness,true leadership,is found in giving yourself in service to others, not in coaxing or inducing others to serve you. True service is never without cost. Often it comes with a painful baptism of suffering. But the true spiritual leader is focused on the service he and she can render to God and other people, not on the residuals and perks of high office or holy title. We must aim to put more into life than we take out.” PeopleGivingSpiritualSufferingFoundLeaderGreatnessHolyCostOfficeAimPainfulFocusedTitlesService To OthersBaptismTrue LeaderPerksTrue LeadershipSpiritual LeaderTrue GreatnessGiving Yourself Author:J.

“Part of America's industrial problems is the aim of its corporate managers. Most American executives think they are in the business to make money, rather than products or service.

“Bismarck had cunningly taught the parties not to aim at national appeal but to represent interests. They remained class or sectional pressure-groups under the Republic. This was fatal, for it made the party system, and with it democratic parliamentarianism, seem a divisive rather than a unifying factor. Worse: it meant the parties never produced a leader who appealed beyond the narrow limits of his own following.” MadeSeemsInterestPartyLeaderClassGroupsTaughtLimitsPressureAimDemocraticFollowingFactorsAppealsRepublicUnifyingPressure GroupsBismarck Author:Paul Johnson
