Best Quotes about Power

1.
Will it, and set to work briskly.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

2.
The will is deaf and hears no heedful friends.
Shakespeare, William

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.

4.
Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
Alinsky, Saul

5.
Power is the by-product of understanding.
Bronowski, Jacob

6.
All, or the greatest part of men that have aspired to riches or power, have attained thereunto either by force or fraud, and what they have by craft or cruelty gained, to cover the foulness of their fact, they call purchase, as a name more honest. Howsoever, he that for want of will or wit useth not those means, must rest in servitude and poverty.
Raleigh, Sir Walter

7.
No man is wise enough, or good enough to be trusted with unlimited power.
Colton, Charles Caleb

The appetite for power, even for universal power, is only insane when there is no possibility of indulging it; a man who sees the possibility opening before him and does not try to grasp it, even at the risk of destroying himself and his country, is either
Weil, Simone

9.
The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it.
Mencken, H. L.

All the power that we exercise over others depends on the power we exercise over ourselves.
Cotvos

If power was an illusion, wasn't weakness necessarily one also?
Lois McMaster Bujold

12.
A good indignation brings out all one's powers.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

13.
To create power is like a magnet, this is true because this creative power operates like a magnet. Give it a strong clear picture of what you want and this creative power starts to work magnetizing conditions about you -- attracting to you things, resources, opportunities, circumstances and even the people you need, to help bring to pass in your outer life what you have pictured.
Bristol, Claude M.

14.
The exercise of power in this century has meant for all of us in the United States not arrogance, but agony.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

15.
The creation of a thousand forest in one acorn.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

16.
Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control; these three alone lead one to sovereign power.
Tennyson, Lord Alfred

17.
Man has will, but woman has her way.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

18.
Power may be at the end of a gun, but sometimes it's also at the end of the shadow or the image of a gun.
Genet, Jean

19.
When thou standest still from thinking and willing of self, the eternal hearing, seeing, and speaking will be revealed to thee, and so God heareth and seeth through thee. Thine own hearing, willing, and seeing hindereth thee, that thou dost not see nor hear God.
Boehme, Jacob

20.
The will is commendable though the ability may be wanting.
Ovid

21.
Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and relaxed too much.
Bacon, Francis

22.
A wise man has great power, and a man of knowledge increases strength. [Proverbs 24:5]
Bible

23.
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.

24.
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
Steinem, Gloria

25.
I have learned through bitter experience the one supreme lesson to conserve my anger, and as heat conserved is transmitted into energy, even so our anger controlled can be transmitted into a power that can move the world.
Gandhi, Mahatma

26.
If school results were the key to power, girls would be running the world.
Boseley, Sarah

27.
To know the pains of power, we must go to those who have it; to know its pleasures, we must go to those who are seeking it.
Charles Caleb Colton

28.
There must be, not a balance of power, but a community of power; not organized rivalries, but an organized peace.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

29.
Every man has enough power left to carry out that of which he is convinced.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

30.
Thoughts mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire are powerful things.
Hill, Napoleon

31.
Power doesn't corrupt people, people corrupt power.
Gaddis, William

32.
If absolute power corrupts absolutely, does absolute powerlessness make you pure?
Harry Shearer

33.
People do not lack strength; they lack will.
Hugo, Victor

34.
I call the discourse of power any discourse that engenders blame, hence guilt, in its recipient.
Barthes, Roland

35.
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

36.
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

37.
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

38.
Where there is a will there is a lawsuit.

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

44.
Our power is not so much in us as through us.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson

45.
Power will intoxicate the best hearts, as wine the strongest heads. No man is wise enough, nor good enough to be trusted with unlimited power.
Colton, Charles Caleb

46.
Unless a serpent devour a serpent it will not become a dragon. Unless one power absorb another, it will not become great.
Proverb

47.
Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak.
Adams, John

48.
He who gains a victory over other men is strong; but he who gains a victory over himself is all powerful.
Lao-Tzu
