"It's very difficult to evaluate a leader in a very short-term perspective because to be a leader you must be able to have a long-term perspective. You must be able to carry changes which take many years. And this is why you can really see whether it has been a good leadership after some years have passed."

~Gro Harlem Brundtland
Prime Minister, Norway,
1981, 1986-1989, and
1990-1996
