Summary

This quote suggests that a great leader is one who can effectively communicate their ideas and persuade others to adopt their perspective. The true test of their leadership is seen in the lasting impact they leave on people's minds. If the leader's opinions and beliefs continue to resonate with people even after several years, it reflects their ability to inspire and influence others. This highlights the importance of not only conveying one's ideas but also ensuring that they stand the test of time and remain relevant long into the future.

So, in the infinitely nobler battle in which you are engaged against error and wrong, if ever repulsed or stricken down, may you always be solaced and cheered by the exulting cry of triumph over some abuse in Church or State, some vice or folly in society, some false opinion or cruelty or guilt which you have overcome!
