“True greatness, true leadership, is achieved not by reducing men to one's service but in giving oneself in selfless service to them.”

“Time and money spent in helping men to do more for themselves is far better than mere giving.”

“All human affairs rest upon probabilities, and the same thing is true everywhere. If man were immortal he could be perfectly sure of seeing the day when everything in which he had trusted would betray his trust, and, in short, of coming eventually to hopeless misery. He would break down, at last, as every great fortune, as every dynasty, as every civilization does. In place of this we have death.”

“One never knows, do one?”

“There is no need to hold on to what's obsolete: One never loses what one tosses away deliberately.”
