Great leaders passed away, politicians made their way.

About This Quote

Great leaders passed away, politicians made their way. If you are running for public office, it is important to appreciate the fact that you are not immune to the whims of the public. Most people will see you at your worst, but few will ever see you at your best. And when they do, they may be too shocked to give you a second chance. The best thing for someone running for office is to get the job done and then get out.
