“He who would be a leader must pay the price in self-discipline and moral restraint.  This entails the correction and improvement of personal character, the checking of passions and desires, and an exemplary control of one’s bodily needs and drives.  Leaders have to submit themselves to a stricter self-discipline and develop a more exemplary moral character than is expected of others.  To be first in place, one must be first in merit as well.  (H.I.M. July 14, 1961)
