Famous quotes containing the words regular, season and/or leaders:

    [I]n our country economy, letter writing is an hors d’oeuvre. It is no part of the regular routine of the day.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Methoughts a legion of foul fiends
    Environed me, and howled in mine ears
    Such hideous cries that with the very noise
    I trembling waked, and for a season after
    Could not believe but that I was in hell,
    Such terrible impression made my dream.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    All of the great leaders have had one characteristic in common: it was the willingness to confront unequivocally the major anxiety of their people in their time. This, and not much else, is the essence of leadership.
    John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
