Maintaining Authority

Document Actions
A brief thought from Renaissance polymath Leon Battista Alberti, from his work On the Duties and Education of Children.

“Let all fathers and elders remember that authority maintained through force is always less stable than that maintained through love. No fear can last forever; love is long enduring. Fear loses its power with time, but love grows from day to day.”
