Pity so many of the quotations are male oriented. They need to be re-written in a non-gender specific form. For example, perhaps:
“Unless you feel right toward your fellows, you can never be a successful leader”
and not
“Unless you feel right toward your fellow men, you can never be a successful leader of men”
