3.21 Whatsoever a great man does, that the other men also do; whatever he sets up as the standard, that the world (mankind) follows.
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaEnglish
Whatever action a great man performs, common men follow. And whatever standards he sets by exemplary acts, all the world pursues.
