Leaders must invoke an alchemy of great vision.

Sweet April's tears, Dead on the hem of May.

The knight's bones are dust, And his good sword rust; His soul is with the saints, I trust.

Get me inside any boardroom and I'll get any decision I want.

The virtue in most request is conformity.

Men are apt to prefer a prosperous error to an afflicted truth.

A closed mouth catches no flies.

The only yardstick for success our society has is being a champion. No one remembers anything else.

Old things need not be therefore true, O brother men, nor yet the new; Ah! still awhile the old thought retain, And yet consider it again!

I haven't touched my brother in almost 18 years.

Virtue by premeditation isn't worth much.

I am better able to retract what I did not say than what I did.

Of this I am certain, that no one has ever died who was not destined to die some time. Now the end of life puts the longest life on a par with the shortest... And of what consequence is it what kind of death puts an end to life, since he who has died once is not forced to go through the same ordeal a second time? They, then, who are destined to die, need not be careful to inquire what death they are to die, but into what place death will usher them.

Feast of Simon & Jude, Apostles True spiritual power of the Christian order is a kind of possessedness. It arises in and flows through a life hid with Christ in God. Its source is the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the potency of the Holy Spirit. True spiritual power is the child of two parents: the truth as it is revealed in Jesus and our own experience resulting upon our acceptance of Him and His truth. The objective factor is that whole set of facts and truths, of historic events, and of interpretation of them, which is held by the church and set forth in the Bible. The subjective factor is what happens in the crucible of your life and mine when we accept the set of facts and truths and interpretations, and it begins to work in us.

An instinctive taste teaches men to build their churches in flat countries with spire steeples, which, as they cannot be referred to any other object, point as with silent finger to the sky and stars.

Your actions speak so loud that I can't hear what you're saying.

And the wisdom to distinguish one from the other.
