Quotes by Ron Suskind (?)

“It is one thing to rouse the passion of a people, and quite another to lead them.”

“Nonetheless, the fact remains; he had hope in a better world he could not yet see that overwhelmed the cries of "you can't" or "you won't" or "why bother." More than anything else, mastering that faith, on cue, is what separated him from his peers, and distinguishes him from so many people in these literal, sophisticated times. It has made all the difference.”
― Ron Suskind, A Hope in the Unseen: An American Odyssey from the Inner City to the Ivy League

tags: belief-in-self, faith, hard-work, hope, poverty, success
