“ThoughtOf obedience, faith, adhesiveness;As I stand aloof and look there is to me something profoundly affecting in large masses of men following the lead of those who do not believe in men.”
“Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.”
“And so my thoughts have lead me to believe that childless men and women lead lives more fortunate than those with sons and daughters.”
“I am not apt to follow blindly the lead of other men”
“Faith is necessary to men; woe to him who believes in nothing!”
“Replace a goal of obedience with one of connection and trust instead. Children are drawn to follow those to whom they are emotionally connected. By parenting not for obedience but for relationship, kids are naturally inclined to follow your lead.”
