Best Quotes about Power
The will is commendable though the ability may be wanting.
Ovid
Power tires only those who do not have it.
Andreotti, Giulio
The law always limits every power it gives.
Hume, David
Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac.
Kissinger, Henry
Calmness is the cradle of power.
Holland, Josiah Gilbert
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
To get power over is to defile. To possess is to defile.
Weil, Simone
Free will and determinism are like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you is determinism. The way you play your hand is free will.
Cousins, Norman
Ten persons who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
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
There is an urgent need -- in fact a national survival need -- for invigorating intellectual life, for upgrading the general regard for intellectual excellence. The United States must experience an intellectual renaissance or it will experience defeat. The time cannot be far off -- if indeed it is not already here -- when the strength of a nation, measured in terms of any kind of world competition, will depend less on the number of its bombs than on the number of its learned men.
Roper, Elmo
Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
Orwell, George
What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.
Macarthur, Douglas
Authority founded on injustice is never of long duration.
Seneca
Ultimately, the only power to which man should aspire is that which he exercises over himself.
Elie Wiesel
But the relationship of morality and power is a very subtle one. Because ultimately power without morality is no longer power.
Baldwin, James
Into the hands of every individual is given a marvelous power for good or evil-the silent, unconscious, unseen influence of his life. This is simply the constant radiation of what man really is, not what he pretends to be.
Jordan, William George
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.
Hendrix, Jimi
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 exercise of power in this century has meant for all of us in the United States not arrogance, but agony.
Johnson, Lyndon B.
The one who wills is the one who can.
Proverb
If absolute power corrupts absolutely, does absolute powerlessness make you pure?
Harry Shearer
The secret of all power is - save your force. If you want high pressure you must choke off waste.
Joseph Farrell
In oratory the will must predominate.
Hare, David
Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water. Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it. So the flexible overcome the adamant, the yielding overcome the forceful. Everyone knows this, but no one can do it.
Lao-Tzu
To gain a crown by fighting is great, to reject it divine.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
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
The ordinary man with extraordinary power is the chief danger for mankind -- not the fiend or the sadist.
Fromm, Erich
It is difficult to find a reputable American historian who will acknowledge the crude fact that a Franklin Roosevelt, say, wanted to be President merely to wield power, to be famed and to be feared. To learn this simple fact one must wade through a sea of
Vidal, Gore
The purpose of getting power is to be able to give it away.
Bevan, Aneurin
From Paul to Stalin, the popes who have chosen Caesar have prepared the way for Caesars who quickly learn to despise popes.
Camus, Albert
The exercise of power is determined by thousands of interactions between the world of the powerful and that of the powerless, all the more so because these worlds are never divided by a sharp line: everyone has a small part of himself in both.
Havel, Vaclav
The creation of a thousand forest in one acorn.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Power over a man's subsistence amounts to power over his will.
Hamilton, Alexander
I said to the almond tree, Friend, speak to me of God, and the almond tree blossomed.
Kazantzakis, Nikos
Power in America today is control of the means of communication.
White, Theodore
The will of man is his happiness.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
A wise man has great power, and a man of knowledge increases strength. [Proverbs 24:5]
Bible
Happiness is secured through virtue; it is a good attained by man's own will.
Aquinas, St. Thomas
If power was an illusion, wasn't weakness necessarily one also?
Lois McMaster Bujold
What a person wills and not what they know determines their worth or unworth, power or impotence, happiness or unhappiness.
Lindner, Robert
Power is so characteristically calm, that calmness in itself has the aspect of strength.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
Our bodies are our gardens... our wills are our gardeners.
Shakespeare, William
The highest proof of virtue is to possess boundless power without abusing it.
Lord Macaulay
A word after a word after a word is power.
Atwood, Margaret
The quality of the will to power is, precisely, growth. Achievement is its cancellation. To be, the will to power must increase with each fulfillment, making the fulfillment only a step to a further one. The vaster the power gained the vaster the appetite for more.
Guin, Ursula K. Le
Power corrupts, but lack of power corrupts absolutely.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
Will cannot be quenched against its will.
Dante Alighieri
Self-will so ardent and active that it will break a world to pieces to make a stool to sit on.
Cecil, Richard
