The great men of power who seek to change the nations they belong to usually are pretty terrible people.
Princes are venison in Heaven.
Princes are like heavenly bodies, which cause good or evil times, and which have much veneration, but no rest.
Leaders are more powerful role models when they learn than when they teach.
Putin is no different than any other powerful man, like a Senator, or a President.
I do believe there are leaders who are like lightning and they come along and they lead. The Lincolns of the world, the Alexander the Greats, they do exist. They have existed.
We want very good leaders who have a lot of power.
I've never been so star struck in my life as when I met President Obama and Bill Clinton... and at the same time, no less! I'm not one to be at a loss for words, and that was a moment when I really was speechless. It was a big, big night.
Pity the powerful who are tested by history and fail.
