F
A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go but ought to be.

R
If we have not achieved our early dreams, we must either find new ones or see what we can salvage from the old. If we have accomplished what we set out to do in our youth, we need not weep like Alexander the Great that we have no more worlds to conquer.
A
If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, you don't branch out, you don't try -- you don't take the risk.
N
You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don't win, at least you can be satisfied that you've tried.
K
I had already learned from more than a decade of political life that I was going to be criticized no matter what I did, so I might as well be criticized for something I wanted to do.
