We degenerate into hideous puppets, haunted by the memory of the passions of which we were too much afraid, and the exquisite temptations that we had not the courage to yield to. Youth! Youth! There is absolutely nothing in the world but youth!

She has the fascinating tyranny of youth, and the astonishing courage of innocence. 

Realize your youth while you have it. Don't squander the gold of your days, listening to the tedious, trying to improve the hopeless failure, or giving away your life to the ignorant, the common, and the vulgar. These are the sickly aims, the false ideals, of our age. Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new sensations. Be afraid of nothing.

We don't grow older we grow riper.

It was not that I did not love you; it was that I expected too much of youth. I was measuring you by the yardstick of my own years.

To manipulate, drive or manage people is not the same thing as to lead them.

Disciples are those who have been so ravished with Christ that others want to be like them.

If we have faith in Christ, we must believe that he knew how to live.

The most powerful leadership tool you have is your own personal example.

The minute we stop learning, we begin death, the process of dying. We learn from each other with every action we perform. We are teaching goodness or evil every time we step out of the house and into the street.

Live as a credible witness. If our actions don't line up with the message we're proclaiming, we risk losing our credibility.

It doesn't matter what Christ or Buddha said, it matters how they lived.
