A Phrase I Want To Remember

This is just a simple note for me to never forget this phrase by Michelle Obama. Just because I love it. 

"It is so easy and lazy to lead by fear.
It is much harder to lead by hope" 

This is from her Interview on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, 23:40. I have been coming back to this phrase in so many of my thoughts, often frustrated and lost, just because it captures the truth so well, and also shows how politics actually should be. I just think it's absolutely brilliant and beautifully put.

This phrase also links back to her famous quotes:

"Lead by example, with hope, never fear"

"Don’t ever make decisions based on fear.
Make decisions based on hope and possibility.
Make decisions based on what should happen, not what shouldn't."

I really can't emphasize enough how much I love her values.
