help build the moral base of our
communities. You have
standards, ideals, and values that
will not only lead you to success,
but will bless and strengthen this
nation and all the world.”

“Central to the way that
great leaders get others to
follow them, is the
character of a man or
woman. People will
follow the direction of
those who do the right
thing.”
