Best Quotes about Power

Nehru, Jawaharlal

9.
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.

Hoffer, Eric

10.
He who is firm in will molds the world to himself.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

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

15.
Give me a lever long enough, and a prop strong enough, I can single-handed move the world.
Archimedes

16.
He is the most powerful who has himself, in his power.
Seneca

17.
To get power over is to defile. To possess is to defile.
Weil, Simone

18.
All things must; man is the only creature that wills.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

19.
Power is every stealing from the many to the few.
Phillips, Wendell

20.
I often say of George Washington that he was one of the few in the whole history of the world who was not carried away by power.
Frost, Robert

21.

Rand, Ayn

24.
I feel it now: there's a power in me to grasp and give shape to my world I know that nothing has ever been real without my beholding it. All becoming has need me..
Rilke, Rainer Maria

25.
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

26.
Power is my mistress. I have worked too hard at her conquest to allow anyone to take her away from me.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

27.
A few great minds are enough to endow humanity with monstrous power, but a few great hearts are not enough to make us worthy of using it.
Rostand, Jean

28.
Woman's influence is powerful, especially when she wants something.
Billings, Josh

29.
The sole advantage of power is that you can do more good.
Baltasar Gracian

30.
There are powers inside of you which, if you could discover and use, would make of you everything you ever dreamed or imagined you could become.
Marden, Orison Swett

31.
The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it.
Mencken, H. L.

32.
Unless a serpent devour a serpent it will not become a dragon. Unless one power absorb another, it will not become great.
Proverb

33.
A boy's will is the will of the wind.
Proverb, Norse

34.
The mastery of nature is vainly believed to be an adequate substitute for self mastery.
Niebuhr, Reinhold

35.
A cock has great influence on his own dunghill.
Syrus, Publilius

36.
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
Steinem, Gloria

37.
I call the discourse of power any discourse that engenders blame, hence guilt, in its recipient.
Barthes, Roland

38.
We can speak without voice to the trees and the clouds and the waves of the sea. Without words they respond through the rustling of leaves and the moving of clouds and the murmuring of the sea.
