“If you are a woman, if you're a person of color, if you are gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, if you are a person of size, if you are a person of intelligence, if you are a person of integrity, then you are considered a minority in this world. And it's going to be really hard to find messages of self-love and support anywhere. Especially women's and gay men's culture. It's all about how you have to look a certain way, or else you're worthless... For us to have self-esteem is truly an act of revolution, and our revolution is long overdue.” IfsWorldWayLooksPersonsLongSelfHardCertainSupportSelf EsteemThis WorldColorRevolutionSelf LoveIntegrityGayMessagesSizeEsteemMinoritiesWorthlessFind MeTransgenderBisexualOverdue Author:Margaret Cho

“Stupidity is a factor to be reckoned with in human affairs. The true leader always expects to encounter it, and prepares to endure it patiently so long as it is normal stupidity. He knows that his ideas will be distorted, his orders carelessly executed; and that there will be jealousy among his assistants. He takes these inevitable phenomena into account, and instead of attempting to find men without faults, who are non-existent, he tries to make use of the best men at his disposal - as they are, and not as they ought to be.” KnowsMenTryingHumansLongIdeasUseOrderLeaderOughtNormalAccountsFaultsEndureAffairStupidityFactorsInevitableEncountersAttemptingFind MeAssistantsTrue Leader Author:Andre Maurois
