Choosing one's leaders is an affirmation that the person making the choice has inherent worth.

Half the joy of life is in little things taken on the run... but let us keep our hearts young and our eyes open that nothing worth our while shall escape us.

Emile M. Cioran, Romanian Philosopher (1911-  )
I just managed to convince my grandmother that it was a worth while that was something to do, you know, and when I did finally get the guitar, it didn't seem that difficult to me, to be able to make a good noise out of it.
Eric Clapton, British Musician (1945-  )
