If you are a follower of Jesus Christ , then the world around you will also be subdued ~ Sunday Adelaja
Follower quotes by Sunday Adelaja
I'm a follower of the Christ path, and that opens a huge discussion about what we even mean by words like "Christian." ~ Barbara Brown Taylor
Follower quotes by Barbara Brown Taylor
Among other pleasing errors of young minds is the opinion of their own importance. He that has not yet remarked, how little attention his contemporaries can spare from themselves, conceives all eyes turned upon himself, and imagines everyone that approaches him to be an enemy or a follower, an admirer or a spy. ~ Samuel Johnson
Follower quotes by Samuel Johnson
I feel like everybody, whether you have one follower or a million followers, has an opportunity to either positively or negatively affect people. ~ Tyler Oakley
Follower quotes by Tyler Oakley
There is only one way in the world to be distinguished. Follow your instinct! Be yourself, and you'll be somebody. Be one more blind follower of the blind, and you will have the oblivion you desire. ~ Bliss Carman
Follower quotes by Bliss Carman
One morning, waking out of deep sleep, she had, like James Anderson a few hours ago, humbly recognized her knowledge, and known herself mistaken until now, and a follower of the path of least resistance. For unbelief was easier than belief, much less demanding and subtly flattering because the agnostic felt himself to be intellectually superior to the believer. And then unbelief haunted by faith, as she knew by experience, produced a rather pleasant nostalgia, while belief haunted by doubt involved real suffering; that she knew now by intuition, soon probably she would know it by experience also. One had to be haunted by one or the other, she imagined, and to make the choice if only subconsciously. She was ashamed that subconsciously she had chosen not to suffer. ~ Elizabeth Goudge
Follower quotes by Elizabeth Goudge
But perhaps the greatest attraction of Mormonism was the promise that each follower would be granted an extraordinarily intimate relationship with God. Joseph taught and encouraged his adherents to receive personal communiqués straight from the Lord. Divine revelation formed the bedrock of the religion. ~ Jon Krakauer
Follower quotes by Jon Krakauer
The fundamental weakness in the Tea Party machine is the stark difference between what the leaders of the Tea Party elite - plutocrats like the Koch Brothers -want and what the average grassroots Tea Party follower wants. ~ Chuck Schumer
Follower quotes by Chuck Schumer
A believer twists the Bible to fit his or her lifestyle. A follower works to make his or her lifestyle resemble the teachings of the Bible. ~ Jarrid Wilson
Follower quotes by Jarrid Wilson
There were times in my career when I would try to write songs like Bob Dylan ... Artists get hooked up in that. To be a follower, you lose. ~ Del Shannon
Follower quotes by Del Shannon
Following your own star means isolation, not knowing where to go, having to find out a completely new way for yourself instead of just going on the trodden path everybody else runs along. That's why there's always been a tendency in humans to project the uniqueness and the greatness of their own inner self onto outer personalities and become the servants, the devoted servants, admirers, and imitators of outer personalities. It is much easier to admire a great personality and become a pupil or follower of a guru or a religious prophet, or an admirer of a big, official personality - a President of the United States - or live your life for some military general whom you admire. That is much easier than following your own star. (p. 71) ~ Marie-Louise Von Franz
Follower quotes by Marie-Louise Von Franz
Nothing stirs God's heart more than a humble heart and a merciful spirit. God responds to mercy, because it is through compassion that we fully come to know Him. This is the defining quality of a true follower of Christ. We are never closer to the heart of God than when we are forgiving someone. And we are never farther from it than when we are holding a grudge. ~ Nicky Cruz
Follower quotes by Nicky Cruz
Despite what people think, I was such a rule follower at school. I loved the whole slacker look, like, 'Hey, I don't care, whatever,' but if I didn't turn my homework in, I would panic. ~ Kristen Stewart
Follower quotes by Kristen Stewart
What is it to be a follower of Jesus? What does it mean to imitate Him? What does it mean to walk in His steps? ~ Charles M. Sheldon
Follower quotes by Charles M. Sheldon
The world now understands the concept of a 'desk murderer.' We know that one doesn't need to be fanatical, sadistic, or mentally ill to murder millions; that it is enough to be a loyal follower eager to do one's duty. ~ Simon Weisenthal
Follower quotes by Simon Weisenthal
I've always been a follower of silent movies. I see film as a visual medium with a musical accompaniment, and dialogue is a raft that goes on with it. ~ George Lucas
Follower quotes by George Lucas
He thinks he is a flower to be looked at And when he pulls his frilly nylon pants right up tight He feels a dedicated follower of fashion. When a waiter at Buckingham Palace spilled soup on her dress: Never darken my Dior again! ~ Ray Davies
Follower quotes by Ray Davies
There is one thing I need to be sure of," said the Emperor, taking an arrow, and placing it in the bow, cocking it back, "I need to know where your loyalties lay, Miss Roberts."
"With you, Emperor," said Areli, scared, "of course, they're with you."
"Then prove it," said the Emperor, "prove your obedience to me. Prove your allegiance." He placed the crossbow in her fingers, laced her finger against the trigger, and positioned the butt of the weapon against her shoulders. "That woman there. She's a follower, Areli. She's a deceitful little tramp that had taken residence in the bed of Degendhard's. I want you to kill her for me. I want you to punish her, for her crimes against her Empire." Areli looked at him, bewildered, with eyes that screamed, you can't be serious!
"If you don't. Then I will have no other option than to assume you have been taken to Degendhard's bed as well. You will do this, Areli. You will punish her. Prove your worth." Areli took a deep breath, feeling the smoothness of the wood and the coldness of the trigger for the first time since having the harsh weapon thrust into her hand.
The Emperor, sensing her hesitation, forced himself upon her. Her lifted her arms, and steadied the weapon into her shoulder, his chest pressed up against her back, his lips rubbing against her ear. The crossbow shook. The woman's head lulled back and forth as she was stuck in a drug rendered dream-state, not knowing that her body faced impalement.
" ~ Jeffrey Johnson
Follower quotes by Jeffrey   Johnson
Fanatics are like debris following the course of the wind, they are swept around like sand, and convinced to believe in what they do not understand. ~ Michael Bassey Johnson
Follower quotes by Michael Bassey Johnson
All these boundaries - Africa, Asia, Malaysia, America - are set by men. But you don't have to look at boundaries when you are looking at a man - at the character of a man. The question is: What do you stand for? Are you a follower, or are you a leader? ~ Hakeem Olajuwon
Follower quotes by Hakeem Olajuwon
A man who will be the public leader, must know how to be the public follower. ~ Gautama Buddha
Follower quotes by Gautama Buddha
I'm a huge, huge fan of almost everything British. I love 'The Office' - I was a faithful follower of that show before the American version. ~ Brad Paisley
Follower quotes by Brad Paisley
Your ability to consummate Leadership or follower-ship brings fulfillment at each appointed time in life ~ Ikechukwu Joseph
Follower quotes by Ikechukwu Joseph
The only option to avoid war is the departure of the number one warmonger in the world US President George W Bush. His policy has brought disaster to the United States. This crazy man should go and also his subject, disciple and follower UK Prime Minister Tony Blair. ~ Naji Sabri
Follower quotes by Naji Sabri
But whoever is a genuine follower of Truth, keeps his eye steady upon his guide, indifferent whither he is led, provided that she is the leader. ~ Edmund Burke
Follower quotes by Edmund Burke
He was a devoted follower of the teachings of Epicurus - "that pleasure is the beginning and end of living happily" - although I hasten to add that he was an Epicurean not in the commonly misunderstood sense, as a seeker after luxury, but in the true meaning, as a pursuer of what the Greeks call ataraxia, or freedom from disturbance. He consequently avoided arguments and unpleasantness of any kind (needless to say, he was unmarried) and desired only to contemplate philosophy by day and dine by night with his cultured friends. He ~ Robert Harris
Follower quotes by Robert Harris
Anybody who French bashes just might as well wear a badge that says 'I am a follower! I don't think for myself and I have no idea what I'm talking about.' That would be a French basher. ~ Janeane Garofalo
Follower quotes by Janeane Garofalo
The first duty of a Christian, of a disciple and follower of Jesus Christ, is to deny himself. To deny oneself means to give up one's bad habits, to root out of the heart all that ties us to the world; not to cherish bad desires and thoughts; to quench and suppress bad thoughts; to avoid occasions of sin; not to do or desire anything from self-love but to do everything out of love for God. To deny oneself means, according to the Apostle Paul, to be dead to sin and the world, but alive to God. ~ Innocent Of Alaska
Follower quotes by Innocent Of Alaska
The sun shine comes, you see the shine you see the color, when night comes you the stars you see the dark the blooming moon you choose a star you follow the star it comes in your dreams you follow stars once a light bug dies you see a new star you follow the star your dreams come true. ~ Demi Lovato
Follower quotes by Demi Lovato
Initiative, imagination, and courage distinguish between a leader and a follower. ~ Debasish Mridha
Follower quotes by Debasish Mridha
Sometimes it can be really hard in our fast paced society to slow ourselves down enough to begin to listen to God's voice. The dilemma exists in my position as well. To be a follower of Christ is to emulate Him. When He went off alone into the desert to pray, He was teaching a valuable lesson. ~ Jon Foreman
Follower quotes by Jon Foreman
Can one be a follower of Jesus Christ ... and have countries attacked. The lives, reputations and possessions of people destroyed and on the slight chance of the presence of a few criminals in a village, city, or convoy for example, the entire village, city or convoy set ablaze. ~ Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Follower quotes by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
It is better to be a discipline than a follower. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Follower quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
I have a general moral: great philosophers may be great, but that is not a reason to follow them. Don't be a follower. Work it out for yourself. ~ Tim Crane
Follower quotes by Tim Crane
I've been involved in a number of cults both as a leader and a follower. You have more fun as a follower but you make more money as a leader. ~ Creed Bratton
Follower quotes by Creed Bratton
If you think of yourself as a follower of Christ's teachings, if you consider yourself a good person, you are morally obligated to be against greed. It's your duty as a good person to be against exploitation. It's your moral duty to be against predatory capitalism. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
Follower quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
I am neither a philosopher nor a thinker, but simply follower of my own thoughts. ~ M.F. Moonzajer
Follower quotes by M.F. Moonzajer
My mother used to tell me to be a leader, never a follower. As a respect to my the words of my mother, I cannot place my faith in God or anyone else, because if I do, I am merely a follower. In order to respect my mother's wishes, I had to dethrone God himself and claim the title as leader. ~ Lionel Suggs
Follower quotes by Lionel Suggs
Vanity is so firmly anchored in man's heart that a soldier, a camp follower, a cook or a porter will boast and expect admirers, and even philosophers want them; those who write against them want to enjoy the prestige of having written well, those who read them want the prestige of having read them, and perhaps I who write this want the same thing. ~ Blaise Pascal
Follower quotes by Blaise Pascal
I'm a shepherd, not a sheep, and I've always prided myself on being a leader and not a follower. ~ Dustin Diamond
Follower quotes by Dustin Diamond
To quote Alfred Einstein: 'a follower tells, but a leader shows. ~ Peter Lerangis
Follower quotes by Peter Lerangis
Slave. Minion. Fiend. The others who have come before me have been called such things, but I prefer to think of myself as a disciple; a devout follower of my voluptuous mistress. ~ Charlotte Featherstone
Follower quotes by Charlotte Featherstone
The cleverest amongst you is he who is the loyal apostle of life, the true disciple of existence, the devout follower of love. ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Follower quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
Going to a bar or pool hall doesn't mean you're a drunk, just like sitting in a henhouse doesn't make you a chicken. It's the same in the opposite setting. Sitting in a church building doesn't make you a follower of Christ. ~ Jase Robertson
Follower quotes by Jase Robertson
It should be considered illegal for a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ not to be burning with passion for our Lord and burning with passion for the lost. ~ Mark Cahill
Follower quotes by Mark Cahill
There's no point in arguing with partisan supporters. Their views are their identity. Nothing you can tell the most phlegmatic follower. ~ Michael Lewis
Follower quotes by Michael Lewis
Leadership consists not in degrees of technique but in traits of character; it requires moral rather than athletic or intellectual effort, and it imposes on both leader and follower alike the burdens of self-restraint. ~ Lewis H. Lapham
Follower quotes by Lewis H. Lapham
And morning came ... It still comes. Our God is here, Emmanuel, among us, always coming towards us, always standing behind us, always standing up for us, always standing with us in solidarity in communion asking us to come with Him now as disciple, as follower, as believer, as a friend, as intimate beloved child of God, now and forever. ~ Megan McKenna
Follower quotes by Megan McKenna
When I'm on the court, I'm a follower. ~ Howard Bach
Follower quotes by Howard Bach
Profundity fails me." Father Ramon's gaze rested on Loup. "And perhaps that is fitting, since words have never been your strong suit, Loup Garron. I said once that you were neither a leader nor a follower. I think perhaps you're something more rare. A catalyst. A catalyst for change, hope, faith. This group of you, God willing the last of you, have been different. What does it mean to live without fear? What lessons are we to take from your presence among us?" He shook his head. "I don't know. I know only that in your own way, you inspire us. ~ Jacqueline Carey
Follower quotes by Jacqueline Carey
If I didn't fear I'd do you harm...I'd try to make you an atheist. I really do think that you are a deluded follower of mistaken and superstitious and cowardly theories. That's as far as I'll go....Everyone who worships a god worships a force back of all nature, no matter what they call him or it and even if they call his aspects by different names & have many "gods." If there really is such a force, then all people who worship any god or gods, worship the same god. I'd just as soon call him Ishtar or Baal or Jehovah. They're merely names for the same idea. (Letter from Simpson to Anne Roe, written ca. 1920-21, when Anne was briefly flirting with fundamentalist Christianity, American Philosophical Society archives.) ~ George Gaylord Simpson
Follower quotes by George Gaylord Simpson
Disciple making also involves teaching people to obey all that Christ has commanded us. Now some might say, "Isn't that what preachers are supposed to do?" And in one sense, the answer to this question is yes. God has clearly called and gifted some people in the church to teach his Word formally. At the same time, he has commanded every follower of Jesus to teach his Word relationally. ~ David Platt
Follower quotes by David Platt
The first lady must be a leader. She must not be a follower. ~ Oleg Cassini
Follower quotes by Oleg Cassini
More than anything else, prayer enables you to see your own heart and brings you into alignment with God's heart. Prayer is not a monologue in which we imagine ourselves to be communing with God. Rather, it is a dialogue through which God fashions your heart and makes his dream of you a reality. It is truly the treasured gift of the Christian that through direct answers and not-so-direct answers, the follower of Jesus begins to love God for who he is, not for what he may get out of him. ~ Ravi Zacharias
Follower quotes by Ravi Zacharias
Trying to follow Jesus part-time or halfhearted is impossible. The relationship he wants with you requires your whole heart. And fans should know that his terms are not negotiable. So before you say, "I want to be a follower," be sure you understand what it's going to cost you. ~ Kyle Idleman
Follower quotes by Kyle Idleman
The decision to grow always involves a choice between risk and comfort. This means that to be a follower of Jesus, you must renounce comfort as the ultimate value of your life. ~ John Ortberg
Follower quotes by John Ortberg
My effort should never be to undermine another's faith but to make him a better follower of his own faith. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Follower quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The very first step to becoming a follower of Jesus Christ is the humble admission that we need him. Nothing keeps us out of the kingdom of God more surely than our pride and self-sufficiency. ~ John R.W. Stott
Follower quotes by John R.W. Stott
I wish I'd been accepted sooner and better. When I was younger, not being accepted made me enraged, but now, I am not inclined to dismantle my history. If you banish the dragons, you banish the heroes--and we become attached to the heroic strain in our personal history. We choose our own lives. It is not simply that we decide on the behaviors that construct our experience; when given our druthers, we elect to be ourselves. Most of us would like to be more successful or more beautiful or wealthier, and most people endure episodes of low self-esteem or even self-hatred. We despair a hundred times a day. But we retain the startling evolutionary imperative for the fact of ourselves, and with that splinter of grandiosity we redeem our flaws. These parents have, by and large, chosen to love their children, and many of them have chosen to value their own lives, even though they carry what much of the world considers an intolerable burden. Children with horizontal identities alter your self painfully; they also illuminate it. They are receptacles for rage and joy-even for salvation. When we love them, we achieve above all else the rapture of privileging what exists over what we have merely imagined.

A follower of the Dalai Lama who had been imprisoned by the Chinese for decades was asked if he had ever been afraid in jail, and he said his fear was that he would lose compassion for his captors. Parents often think that they've captured something small and vulnerable, but th ~ Andrew Solomon
Follower quotes by Andrew Solomon
He might not be a truly good man, but he was a rule follower, and he wasn't out to hurt or debase her. She ~ Zannie Adams
Follower quotes by Zannie Adams
You do not become a leader because people follow you. Rather, people tend to follow you because you have leadership qualities. The journey of leadership often starts alone. ~ Awdhesh Singh
Follower quotes by Awdhesh Singh
I cook a lot. I'm always experimenting. I'm not much of a recipe follower. ~ Erika Christensen
Follower quotes by Erika Christensen
To be an excellent leader, you have to be a superb follower, ~ Herb Kelleher
Follower quotes by Herb Kelleher
Every leader attracts a different type of follower from the left or the right, from the lowest or the highest class. Every leader unwittingly attracts certain stereotypes that fuel their underlying agenda. ~ Anita B. Sulser PhD
Follower quotes by Anita B. Sulser PhD
THE INSTRUCTION OF PTAHHOTEP
Epilogue
Part II

The fool who does not hear,
He can do nothing at all;
He sees knowledge in ignorance,
Usefulness in harmfulness.
He does all that one detests
And is blamed for it each day;
He lives on that by which one dies.
His food is distortion of speech.
His sort is known to the officials,
Who say: "A living death each day."
One passes over his doings,
Because of his many daily troubles.

A son who hears is a follower of Horus,
It goes well with him when he has heard.
When he is old has reached veneration.
He will speak likewise to his children,
Renewing the teaching of his father.
Every man teaches as he acts,
He will speak to the children,
So that they will speak to their children:
Set an example, don't give offense,
If justice stands firm your children will live.

As to the first who gets into trouble,
When they see (it) people will say:
"That is just like him."
And will say to what they hear:
"That's just like him too."

To see everyone is to satisfy the many,
Riches are useless without them.
Don't take a word and then bring it back,
Don't put one thing in place of another.
Beware of loosening the cords in you,
Lest a wise man say:
"Listen, if you want to endure in the mouth of the hearers.
Speak after you have mas ~ Miriam Lichtheim
Follower quotes by Miriam Lichtheim
You can be a leader, a follower or out of business. ~ Terence Mauri
Follower quotes by Terence Mauri
Exactly who is this God character who is said to be all-powerful yet needs to hire lawyers to take us to court? Isn't he miffed when someone he had always considered to be a true follower turns to the legal system rather than to prayer? Why would the faithful risk making God look ridiculous by losing a trial on Earth when he is certain to win every trial in heaven? ~ Scott Simon
Follower quotes by Scott Simon
Do I live as carelessly and worldly as unbelievers while professing to be a follower of Jesus? If so, I am exposing Christianity to ridicule and leading people to speak evil of the holy name by which I am called. ~ Charles Spurgeon
Follower quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Do not be a follower. Be a leader. Rebel-Rebel-Rebel. ~ Nadair Desmar
Follower quotes by Nadair Desmar
All who believe and obey the glorious gospel of God, all who are true and faithful and overcome the world, all who suffer for Christ and his word, all who are chastened and scourged in the Cause of him whose we are - all shall become as their Maker and sit with him on his throne and reign with him forever in everlasting glory. ~ Bruce R. McConkie
Follower quotes by Bruce R. McConkie
If you're a Jesus follower, it means you're there to love your church, to serve it, to worship with it, and to be accountable to it.... Age doesn't divide. We are all the church. ~ Jaquelle Crowe Ferris
Follower quotes by Jaquelle Crowe Ferris
Now, it is of course well known that Christ continually uses the expression 'imitators.' He never says that he asks for admirers, adoring admirers, adherents; and when he uses the expression 'follower' he always explains it in such a way that one perceives that 'imitators' is meant by it, that is not adherents of a teaching but imitators of a life ... ~ Soren Kierkegaard
Follower quotes by Soren Kierkegaard
You can be a follower of Muhammad or Jesus or Buddha or whomever. Always, they said that the most essential factor is to love your neighbor. And to love you. ~ Leo Buscaglia
Follower quotes by Leo Buscaglia
The first follower is what transforms the lone nut into a leader, and in a startup, that first follower is usually a cofounder. ~ Guy Kawasaki
Follower quotes by Guy Kawasaki
Growing up, I never was a big follower of the Dodgers. ~ Andre Ethier
Follower quotes by Andre Ethier
Every disciple is a believer, but not every believer is necessarily a disciple. Anything short of discipleship, however, is settling for less than what God really desires for us.

Loving God more than anyone or anything else is the very foundation of being a disciple. If you want to live your Christian life to its fullest, then love Jesus more than anyone or anything else.

Either you will have harmony with God and friction with people, or you will have harmony with people and friction with God.

You become a disciple in the biblical sense only when you are totally and completely committed to Jesus Christ and His Word.

As a true disciple, your life won't only be characterized by practical results and a hunger for Scripture, but you also will have love for others - especially fellow believers. Without all of these characteristics, you can't really claim to be His disciple.

A person who has been with Jesus will boldly share his or her faith.

A person who has been with Jesus will be a person of prayer.

A person who has been with Jesus will be persecuted.

If for you, the Christian life is all about feeling good and having everything go your way, then you won't like being a disciple. Being a follower of Christ is the most joyful and exciting life there is. But it also can be the most challenging life there is. It's a life lived out under the command of someone other than yourself.

Mos ~ Greg Laurie
Follower quotes by Greg Laurie
I wondered what the value was, in the Darwinian sense, of making fast friends like that. There must be some scientific significance to being a follower, to allowing yourself to be persuaded by personality ~ Hilary Thayer Hamann
Follower quotes by Hilary Thayer Hamann
The truth is, we are never just one thing. We all have many titles and many labels, but far too often, we get trapped inside a single definition. The Teacher's Pet, the Rule Follower, the Cheerleader, the Athlete, the Princess, the Basket Case, the Criminal... the Rock Star's Girlfriend. Whether we wrote that definition or it was given to us, it somehow becomes our only identity. We get so lost in it that we forget about all the other pieces that make up who we are. ~ Jessica Brody
Follower quotes by Jessica Brody
The man who can follow a leader most efficiently, is usually the man who develops into leadership most rapidly. An intelligent follower has many advantages, among them the opportunity to acquire knowledge from his leader. The ~ Napoleon Hill
Follower quotes by Napoleon Hill
To make peace either in oneself or among others, shows a man to be a follower of God, ~ Thomas Aquinas
Follower quotes by Thomas Aquinas
I am a follower of Jesus. My husband really brought me to the Lord when I was 18 and I am so lucky to have a platform through the studio. ~ Jodi Benson
Follower quotes by Jodi Benson
DON'T BE A FOLLOWER,
NOR TRY TO BE A BORROWER,
MEND UR WAY,
EVEN IT TAKE A DAY,
IF U WISH TO BE A WINNER,
UR DREAMS SHOULD BE BIGGER. ~ Merlin8thomas
Follower quotes by Merlin8thomas
I'd been on 'SVU' before and I'd been on 'Criminal Intent,' but I wasn't a follower. Like, my mom watches every episode, even before I was on it. ~ Kelli Giddish
Follower quotes by Kelli Giddish
Cricket is theater, it's dance, it's an opera. It's dramatic. It's about individual conflict that takes place on a huge stage. But the two warriors also represent the ten other players; it's a relationship between the one and the many. The individual and the social, the leader and the follower, the individual and the universal. ~ Timeri N. Murari
Follower quotes by Timeri N. Murari
I was a full-time pastor and a part-time follower of Christ. ~ Craig Groeschel
Follower quotes by Craig Groeschel
The follower of fashion can be as honest as the leader of the rebellion against it. ~ Vincent Price
Follower quotes by Vincent Price
That the Bomb altered our subsequent history down to its deepest constitutional roots. It redefined the presidency, as in all respects America's "Commander in Chief" (a term that took on a new and unconstitutional meaning in this period). It fostered an anxiety of continuing crisis, so that society was pervasively militarized. It redefined the government as a National Security State, with an apparatus of secrecy and executive control. It redefined Congress, as an executor of the executive. And it redefined the Supreme Court, as a follower of the follower of the executive. Only one part of the government had the supreme power, the Bomb, and all else must defer to it, for the good of the nation, for the good of the world, for the custody of the future, in a world of perpetual emergency superseding ordinary constitutional restrictions. ~ Garry Wills
Follower quotes by Garry Wills
If you wait for others to initiate change you automatically become a follower. ~ Peyton Manning
Follower quotes by Peyton Manning
Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower. ~ Steve Jobs
Follower quotes by Steve Jobs
Good leaders set vision, missions, and goals. Great leaders inspire every follower at every level to internalize their purpose, and to understand that their purpose goes far beyond the mere details of their job. When everyone is united in purpose, a positive purpose that serves not only the organization but also, hopefully, the world beyond it, you have a winning team. ~ Colin Powell
Follower quotes by Colin Powell
A good leader makes a good follower. ~ Wilfred Bion
Follower quotes by Wilfred Bion
A leader is one who travels the path carved out by him, and he 'leads' himself onward on that path. If his path is good and his goals are desirable, many more may follow him in their desire to achieve the same goal. Hence, followership is the effect of leadership and not its cause. ~ Awdhesh Singh
Follower quotes by Awdhesh Singh
I've always been a rule-follower. Even when I was a kid, I tried to do everything by the book. ~ Steven Curtis Chapman
Follower quotes by Steven Curtis Chapman
A leader who loves status quo soon becomes a follower. ~ John C. Maxwell
Follower quotes by John C. Maxwell
What is a disciple? It is not a mindless follower. A disciple is a student.
When Paul prohibits women teaching men, he (in the same breath) requires Christian women to be students of the Word "Let a woman learn ... " (1 Tim 2:11).
Because biblical learning is required of us, we ought not to be afraid of it. We must overcome our ignorance! We ought to read good, solid books on Christian doctrine. It is good for us! We must cultivate a taste for books that will build s up in the faith- not take us to fantasy land. Just read a page or two at a time if need be, and never at the expense of your Bible reading. ~ Nancy Wilson
Follower quotes by Nancy Wilson
Professional societies are sooner or later fractured by the ego of their leaders. Everyone wants to be president, chairman, CEO; no one wants to be a mere follower. ~ F. Sionil Jose
Follower quotes by F. Sionil Jose
That is the joyful task of every follower of Jesus. Someday may it be written about me on my tombstone: He was so amazed by God's grace that he couldn't keep it to himself. ~ Lee Strobel
Follower quotes by Lee Strobel
You have the blood of a great warrior. To lead, you must also learn to follow. ~ E.Y. Laster
Follower quotes by E.Y. Laster
He who cannot be a good follower cannot be a good leader. ~ Aristotle.
Follower quotes by Aristotle.
Your directions, your judgment, your disposition to rebel must be subjected and reduced to ashes. How? In the fire of obedience, for it is there that you will find out if you are truly a follower of Divine love or self love. ~ Michael Molinos
Follower quotes by Michael Molinos
