Quotes- Uniqueness


At bottom, every man knows perfectly well that he is a unique being, only once on this earth; and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvelously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time.
-Friedrich Nietzsche


I'm reading On Becoming a Leader right now by Warren Bennis. One of the key tenets of the book is that great leaders fully express themselves and hold nothing back. Why don't we? I know at times I hold myself back for fear of social repercussions, and yet it's what we as humans are attracted too. Be unique, be real.
