The authentic Leader enables me actually to choose myself









"The paradox to accept is that in democracy, individuals do tend to remain stuck on the level of 'servicing goods' – often, one does need a Leader in order to 'do the impossible'. The authentic Leader is literally the One who enables me actually to choose myself – my subordination to him is the highest act of freedom."

Slavoj Žižek,
Did Somebody Say Totalitarianism? (2001, Verso, London. Page 247)
