True, how true, and far more so than anyone suspects.
Another one I particularly like is
The consummate leader cultivates the moral law and strictly adheres to its methods and discipline.
The moral law causes people to be in complete accord with their ruler so that they will follow him regardless of their lives, undismayed by any danger.
–Sun Tzu 400-320 BC
