A leader must be established in higher values, and be able to communicate her vision to the people. A leader must have impeccable character and be above reproach. She must be dedicated to the welfare of the people, not be driven by self-interest!

Above the cloud with its shadow is the star with its light. Above all things reverence thyself.
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.
