"Every leader has weaknesses and screws up some of the time; an effective leader learns to admit that. My shortcomings are painfully obvious to me. I have high expectations and don't hand out praise easy. Though most players find me compassionate, I'm not a touchy-feely kind of guy who'll slap a fellow on the back and console him when he doesn't perform. I also can be stubborn and intractable, and sometimes I get caught in conflicts that rumble on in the background for months before they get resolved."
Phil Jackson

"Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputation and social standing, never can bring about a reform. Those who are really in earnest must be willing to be anything or nothing in the world's estimation, and publicly and privately, in season and out, avow their sympathy with despised and persecuted ideas and their advocates, and bear the consequences."
Susan B. Anthony
