Schopenhauer, Arthur
Power is what men seek and any group that gets it will abuse it.
Steffens, Lincoln
You see what power is - holding someone else's fear in your hand and showing it to them!
Amy Tan
The earth seemed to move with me. I found a new source of power and beauty, a source I never knew existed.
Bannister, Roger
We should keep silent about those in power; to speak well of them almost implies flattery; to speak ill of them while they are alive is dangerous, and when they are dead is cowardly.
