He who is firm in will molds the world to himself.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang 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.

Cousins, Norman

22.

Raupach

28.

Einstein, Albert

29.
Those in possession of absolute power can not only prophesy and make their prophecies come true, but they can also lie and make their lies come true.
Hoffer, Eric

30.
The least one can say of power is that a vocation for it is suspicious.
Rostand, Jean

31.
Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac.
Kissinger, Henry

32.
All personal, psychological, social, and institutionalized domination on this earth can be traced back to its source: the phallic identities of men.
Dworkin, Andrea

33.
Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will.
