"He hadn't asked to become a leader, but did that absolve him of responsibility? People needed him. The world needed him.

Perhaps we wished to avoid a poor imitation that would only have been an ever-present reminder to us of what we had lost.

Before they have time to think, you give another order, and it will be obeyed. And if you continue to give orders, they will continue to obey, for you will be the one who saved them, and who better to lead?"
"I do not like odd things until I can understand them."
"Image perception makes a big difference. That's one of the things I tell entrepreneurs today. Fine, focus on products, focus on customers and all that good stuff - that's necessary. But the image that you project is also key. Don't forget that."
