Follow Quotations
To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. William Shakespeare When you follow your bliss... doors will open where you would not have thought there would be doors, and where there wouldn't be a door for anyone else. Joseph Campbell I must follow the people. Am I not their leader? Benjamin Disraeli There go the people. I must follow them, for I am their leader. Alexandre Ledru-Rollin Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. Albert Camus |
