Leadership Secrets of Cicero
OK, we only have five — so this isn’t a book proposal. They are:
1. “I criticize by creation — not by finding fault.”
2. “No one can speak well, unless he thoroughly understands his subject.”
3. “He only employs his passion who can make no use of his reason.”
4. “It is a true saying that ‘One falsehood leads easily to another’.”
5. “If you aspire to the highest place, it is no disgrace to stop at the second, or even the third, place.”
So how come people knew this stuff 2,000 years ago and we still have such trouble with it?
