Best Quotes about Power

Mcdougall, William
Where does virgin wool come from? The sheep that runs the fastest.
Banks, Harry F.
If a person has no delicacy, he has you in his power.
Hazlitt, William
Not necessity, not desire --no, the love of power is the demon of men. Let them have everything --health, food, a place to live, entertainment --they are and remain unhappy and low-spirited: for the demon waits and waits and will be satisfied.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
You only have power over people so long as you don't take everything away from them. But when you've robbed a man of everything he's no longer in your power -- he's free again.
Solzhenitsyn, Alexander
Power over a man's subsistence amounts to power over his will.
Hamilton, Alexander
To gain a crown by fighting is great, to reject it divine.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
He that has one eye is a prince among those that have none.
Fuller, Thomas
One person with a belief is equal to a force of 99 who have only interests.
John Stuart Mill
Man was predestined to have free will.
Luyah, Hal
Power doesn't corrupt people, people corrupt power.
Gaddis, William
Do the thing and you will have the power. But they that do not the thing, had not the power.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
He is the most powerful who has himself, in his power.
Seneca
I have never been able to conceive how any rational being could propose happiness to himself from the exercise of power over others.
Jefferson, Thomas
It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.
Macarthur, Douglas
Power is the faculty or capacity to act, the strength and potency to accomplish something. It is the vital energy to make choices and decisions. It also includes the capacity to overcome deeply embedded habits and to cultivate higher, more effective ones.
Covey, Stephen R.
Ten persons who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
A good indignation brings out all one's powers.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control; these three alone lead one to sovereign power.
Tennyson, Lord Alfred
The man whose authority is recent is always stern.
Aeschylus

Robbins, Anthony
I said to the almond tree, Friend, speak to me of God, and the almond tree blossomed.
Kazantzakis, Nikos
In the United States, though power corrupts, the expectation of power paralyzes.
Galbraith, John Kenneth
He who is firm in will molds the world to himself.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Voice of one, voice of none.
Proverb, Italian
Concentrated power is not rendered harmless by the good intentions of those who create it.
Friedman, Milton
What you have to do and the way you have to do it is incredibly simple. Whether you are willing to do it, that's another matter.
Drucker, Peter F.
The need to exert power, when thwarted in the open fields of life, is the more likely to assert itself in trifles.
Cooley, Charles Horton
The most exquisite paradox as soon as you give it all up, you can have it all.As long as you want power, you can't have it. The minute you don't want power, you'll have more than you ever dreamed possible.
Dass, Ram
A word after a word after a word is power.
Atwood, Margaret
The problem of power is how to achieve its responsible use rather than its irresponsible and indulgent use - of how to get men of power to live for the public rather than off the public.
Robert F. Kennedy
Louis the XVI knew how to love, pardon, and die: had he known how to punish, he would have known how to reign.
Tilly
Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and relaxed too much.
Bacon, Francis
Power-worship blurs political judgment because it leads, almost unavoidably, to the belief that present trends will continue. Whoever is winning at the moment will always seem to be invincible.
Orwell, George
Nothing can withstand the power of the human will if it is willing to stake its very existence to the extent of its purpose.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Power is not an institution, and not a structure; neither is it a certain strength we are endowed with; it is the name that one attributes to a complex strategical situation in a particular society.
Foucault, Michel
If you haven't the strength to impose your own terms upon life, you must accept the terms it offers you.
Eliot, T. S.
All things must; man is the only creature that wills.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
We will by conscious command evolve cerebral centers which will permit us to use powers that we now are not even capable of imagining.
Tilney, Dr. Frederick
Happiness is secured through virtue; it is a good attained by man's own will.
Aquinas, St. Thomas
What a person wills and not what they know determines their worth or unworth, power or impotence, happiness or unhappiness.
Lindner, Robert
To achieve the mood of a warrior is not a simple matter. It is a revolution. To regard the lion and the water rats and our fellow men as equals is a magnificent act of a warrior's spirit. It takes power to do that.
Castaneda, Carlos
The power to do good is also the power to do harm.
Friedman, Milton
Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.
Patton, George S.
We cannot live by power, and a culture that seeks to live by it becomes brutal and sterile. But we can die without it.
Lerner, Max
The greatest power is often simple patience.
Cossman, E. Joseph
Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
Alinsky, Saul
You commit a sin of omission if you do not utilize all the power that is within you. All men have claims on man, and to the man with special talents, this is a very special claim. It is required that a man take part in the actions and clashes of his time that the peril of being judged not to have lived at all.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Power corrupts the few, while weakness corrupts the many. The resentment of the weak does not spring from any injustice done to them but from the sense of their inadequacy and impotence. They hate not wickedness but weakness. When it is in their power to do so, the weak destroy weakness wherever they see it.
Hoffer, Eric
To live by one man's will becomes the cause of all misery.
Hooker, Richard
