Experience the powerful words of Hillary Rodham Clinton, who has
spent a lifetime in service to the United States, from young lawyer
fighting for the disadvantaged to Secretary of State and two-time
presidential candidate. Arranged thematically, the hundreds of

debates, interviews, books, social media posts, and more, and cover
both her personal and professional lives.
Mother Teresa was beloved the world over for her tireless efforts
on behalf of the poor and outcast, and her spirit shines through in
this powerful, life-affirming collection. Taken from her writings
and speeches, here are hundreds of inspiring quotations on the
importance of charity, the value of family, and the absolute
dignity of every human being.
'You do not lead by hitting people over the head-that's assault,
not leadership.' - Dwight D. Eisenhower What would George
Washington think of today's 24-hour news cycle? While the Founding
Fathers were strong proponents of a free press, they may have been
unnerved at seeing their every gaffe mocked on Twitter. Why not
take a break from breaking news and spend a moment revisiting the
words of some of the greatest leaders the world has known? The
Essential Wisdom of the World's Greatest Leaders gathers hundreds
of quotations from more than two hundred leaders. Within these
pages you'll find presidents, scholars, and philanthropists;
jurists, generals, and activists; saints, scientists, and students.
The selections are arranged thematically and illuminate the
intellect, character, determination, and particular genius of these
remarkable men and women. In this book: Abraham Lincoln extols the
value of freedom and truth. Winston Churchill ponders the strength
that comes from suffering. Frederick Douglass speaks passionately
about the evils of inequality. Hillary Clinton advocates for the
primacy of human rights. Malala Yousafzai offers insight into the
precious gift of education. The Essential Wisdom of the World's
Greatest Leaders is a powerful and thought-provoking collection
that invites us to put down our phones and spend some quality time
with the extraordinary women and men who have each left an
indelible mark on our world.
