Emmet John Hughes Quotes

1 Sourced Quote

He must summon his people to be with him—yet stand above, not squat beside them. He must question his own wisdom and judgment but not too severely. He must hear the opinion and heed the powers of others—but not too abjectly. He must be aggressive without being contentious, decisive without being arrogant, and compassionate without being confused.
