Power Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Power

1.
To live by one man's will becomes the cause of all misery.
Hooker, Richard

2.
Thoughts mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire are powerful things.
Hill, Napoleon

3.
Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and relaxed too much.
Bacon, Francis

4.
Will it, and set to work briskly.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

5.
All things must; man is the only creature that wills.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

6.
When a man's willing and eager the god's join in.
Aeschylus

7.
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

8.
What you seek, exists within you. Every resource you need is available to you.
Wieder, Marcia

9.
We have, I fear, confused power with greatness.
Stewart L. Udall

10.
The fundamental concept in social science is Power, in the same sense in which Energy is the fundamental concept in physics.
Russell, Bertrand

11.
If a person has no delicacy, he has you in his power.
Hazlitt, William

12.
People do not lack strength; they lack will.
Hugo, Victor

13.
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

14.
All personal, psychological, social, and institutionalized domination on this earth can be traced back to its source: the phallic identities of men.
Dworkin, Andrea

15.
Louis the XVI knew how to love, pardon, and die: had he known how to punish, he would have known how to reign.
Tilly

16.
Will is character in action.
Mcdougall, William

17.
The least one can say of power is that a vocation for it is suspicious.
Rostand, Jean

18.
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

19.
Power is so characteristically calm, that calmness in itself has the aspect of strength.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

20.
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

21.
Power is like being a lady... if you have to tell people you are, you aren't.
Thatcher, Margaret

22.
You possess a potent force that you either use, or misuse, hundreds of times every day.
Kohe, J. Martin

23.
We cannot live by power, and a culture that seeks to live by it becomes brutal and sterile. But we can die without it.
Lerner, Max

24.
Willingness is essential in any initiation or in making an dream come true. I can t often means I won t. You can change I won t to I will with willpower.
Wieder, Marcia

25.
By time and council do the best we can: The event is never in the power of man.
Herrich

26.
He that has one eye is a prince among those that have none.
Fuller, Thomas

27.
Power, like a desolating pestilence, pollutes whatever it touches.
Shelley, Percy Bysshe

28.
Power corrupts, but lack of power corrupts absolutely.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

29.
Will minus intellect constitutes vulgarity.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

30.
Powerful men in particular suffer from the delusion that human beings have no memories. I would go so far as to say that the distinguishing trait of powerful men is the psychotic certainty that people forget acts of infamy as easily as their parents birth
Vizinczey, Stephen

31.
Authority is not power; that's coercion. Authority is not knowledge; that's persuasion, or seduction. Authority is simply that the author has the right to make a statement and to be heard.
Kahn, Herman

32.
Power is my mistress. I have worked too hard at her conquest to allow anyone to take her away from me.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

33.
Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Lord Acton

34.
The will is commendable though the ability may be wanting.
Ovid

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

42.
The ordinary man with extraordinary power is the chief danger for mankind -- not the fiend or the sadist.
Fromm, Erich

43.
The great secret of power is never to will to do more than you can accomplish.
Henrik Ibsen

44.
Napoleon for the sake of a good name broke in pieces half the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

45.
Power over a man's subsistence amounts to power over his will.
Hamilton, Alexander

46.
In great things it is enough even to have willed.
Propertius, Sextus
