A Quote by Tony Blair

I do not seek unpopularity as a badge of honour, but sometimes it is the price of leadership and the cost of conviction. — © Tony Blair
I do not seek unpopularity as a badge of honour, but sometimes it is the price of leadership and the cost of conviction.
People say I'm difficult and sometimes that's a badge of honour.
The true price of leadership is the willingness to place the needs of others above your own. Great leaders truly care about those they are privileged to lead and understand that the true cost of the leadership privilege comes at the expense of self-interest.
We never give more honour to Jesus than when we honour his Mother, and we honour her simply and solely to honour him all the more perfectly. We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek - Jesus, her Son.
Leadership is a choice to protect the person to the left of us, and protect the person to the right of us, and sometimes that may come at a cost. It may cost us our benefits, it may cost us our comfort, it may sometimes cost us our perks, whatever it is, credit.
True honour is an attachment to honest and beneficent principles, and a good reputation; and prompts a man to do good to others, and indeed to all men, at his own cost, pains, or peril. False honour is a pretence to this character, but does things that destroy it: And the abuse of honour is called honour, by those who from that good word borrow credit to act basely, rashly, or foolishly.
I have always been of the opinion that unpopularity earned by doing what is right is not unpopularity at all, but glory.
Demonstrate to your customer the difference between price and cost. The price is what it takes to purchase the item. The cost is the amount the customer eventually pays. They are not the same.
We need not envy certain people their great wealth; they acquired it at a heavy cost, which would not suit us; they staked their rest, their health, their honour and their conscience to acquire it, the price is too high, and there is nothing to be gained by such a bargain.
The main reason why it is profitable to establish a firm would seem to be that there is a cost of using the price mechanism. The most obvious cost of 'organizing' production through the price mechanism is that of discovering what the relevant prices are.
Wearing khadi was a badge of honour. It was something one was proud to do.
It is time for us to seek again the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Man's lordship has cost us too much.
While leadership depends on depth of conviction and the power coming therefrom, there must also be the ability to share that conviction with others.
Wrinkles ought to be worn as a badge of honour, as a mark of survival if not wisdom.
To seek truth and to utter what one believes to be true can never be a crime. No one must be forced to accept a conviction. Conviction is free.
Why is it a badge of honour to say you spent 15 years in AA ball?
Even if you have the best intentions, there may sometimes be a price or a cost or a pushback against what you're doing.
