» Joy Reid? £ @JoyAnnReid Just heard this Octavia Butler quote for the first time and am now obsessed with it. Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery. Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents (Earthseed, #2)
