R. RAMAN1
affect the intellectual attitudes that can see a dozen difficulties
every simple solution. He arrives at solutions more by
intuition than the slower process of rationalisation. He recalls
the classic example of a famous chief justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States who invariably collected his colleagues
to tell them of his decision and left it to them as lawyers
to find all the good reasons for it! Whatever else he may yet
achieve he has already left his foot prints on the sands of our
time and the vision of new realms that he so wishes to conquer
is forever sustained by the sole desire to enlarge for himself the
areas of his service to his own people. His talents as a politician
are therefore no more than the projection on to a wider
stage, his personal qualities as a man and, these are the ideal
qualities that make for leadership in the modern world.
