President Truman on Leadership and Progress

Posted on Friday, November 12th, 2010 at 12:38 pm by Lars Toomre

Men make history and not the other way 'round. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.

— Harry S. Truman

Thirty-Third President of the United States (1945-1953)
