Be humble Quote by Nelson Mandela

“You see, when there is danger, a good leader takes the front line. But when there is celebration, a good leader stays in the back room. If you want the cooperation of human beings around you, make them feel that they are important. And you do that by being humble.” quote by Nelson Mandela — Download Open image
