Famous quotes containing the words opposition and/or leader:

    One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    The intelligent employer encourages challenge, questioning—not blind acceptance and “our Leader knows best” acclaim.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
