“Compassion
is not just an emotion; it is a feeling that triggers a response. Compassion
marries empathy and action. It also requires respect for those who will come
after us—a commitment to stewardship.”
John Shaw, Restoring American Statesmanship: A Citizen's Guide
“Successful leaders need more than good intentions; they need to transform hopes
and plans into results. Noble failure may be poetic but it is also unsatisfying.”
John Shaw, Restoring American Statesmanship: A Citizen's Guide
“We have spawned ‘leadership’ that does not lead, that panders to our whims rather than telling us the
truth, that follows the crowd rather than challenging us, that weakens us
rather than strengthening us,” he wrote. “It is easy to go downhill, and we
are now following that easy path. Pandering is not illegal, but it is immoral.
It is doing the convenient when the right course demands inconvenience and
courage.”
John Shaw, Restoring American Statesmanship: A Citizen's Guide
