Des hiérarchies

‘La fondamentale égalité de nature de tous les hommes n’est certes pas dans son esprit abolition des hiérarchies mais source de devoirs réciproques et de véritable charité.’

Virion, P. 1971. Le mystere de Jeanne d'Arc. Tequi

Invincible

'There are no invincible armies; only in the tests of decades, perhaps of centuries, can one philosophy triumph over another'

Inequality

'Human beings come from the ground, Adam himself was formed out of earth;
in the fullness of his wisdom the Lord has made distinctions between them, and diversified their conditions.
Some of them he has blessed, hallowing and setting them near him; others he has cursed and humiliated by degrading them from their positions.
Like clay in the hands of the potter to mould as it pleases him, so are human beings in the hands of their Maker to reward as he judges right.'

Sirach 33.10-13

Stress and leadership

'Under high stress, a leader is more likely to be distract and unable to focus on the task. Intelligence provides no advantage, because it cannot be applied.'

Yukl, G. 1981. Leadership in organizations. New Yersey: Prentice-, 4th edition, p. 286/7.

Respect

'Tel se perd par respect humain,
il se perd par egard pour un insense'

Sirach 20.22
