'You do not lead by hitting people over the head-that's
assault, not leadership.' - Dwight D. Eisenhower
What would George Washington think of today's 24-hour
news cycle? While the Founding Fathers were strong proponents of a free press,
they may have been unnerved at seeing their every gaffe mocked on Twitter. Why
not take a break from breaking news and spend a moment revisiting the words of
some of the greatest leaders the world has known?
The Essential Wisdom of the World's Greatest Leaders
gathers hundreds of quotations from more than two hundred leaders. Within these
pages you'll find presidents, scholars, and philanthropists; jurists, generals,
and activists; saints, scientists, and students. The selections are arranged
thematically and illuminate the intellect, character, determination, and
particular genius of these remarkable men and women.
In this book:
Abraham Lincoln extols the value of
freedom and truth.
Winston Churchill ponders the
strength that comes from suffering.
Frederick Douglass speaks
passionately about the evils of inequality.
Hillary Clinton advocates for the
primacy of human rights.
Malala Yousafzai offers insight
into the precious gift of education.
The Essential Wisdom of the World's Greatest Leaders
is a powerful and thought-provoking collection that invites us to put down our
phones and spend some quality time with the extraordinary women and men who
have each left an indelible mark on our world.
Carol Kelly-Gangi is the editor of such titles as The Essential Wisdom of the World’s Greatest Thinkers, Hillary Clinton: Her Essential Wisdom; Barack Obama: His Essential Wisdom; and Theodore Roosevelt: His Essential Wisdom.
