Fuller, Thomas
Power gravitates to the man who knows how.
Marden, Orison Swett
Power is the most persuasive rhetoric.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
You only have power over people so long as you don't take everything away from them. But when you've robbed a man of everything he's no longer in your power -- he's free again.
Solzhenitsyn, Alexander
The problem of power is how to achieve its responsible use rather than its irresponsible and indulgent use - of how to get men of power to live for the public rather than off the public.
Robert F. Kennedy
I call the discourse of power any discourse that engenders blame, hence guilt, in its recipient.
Barthes, Roland
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
Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control; these three alone lead one to sovereign power.
Tennyson, Lord Alfred
Power is not an institution, and not a structure; neither is it a certain strength we are endowed with; it is the name that one attributes to a complex strategical situation in a particular society.
Foucault, Michel
The earth seemed to move with me. I found a new source of power and beauty, a source I never knew existed.

Madness in great ones must not unwatched go.
Shakespeare, William
In great things it is enough even to have willed.
Propertius, Sextus
Contact with men who wield power and authority still leaves an intangible sense of repulsion. It's very like being in close proximity to fecal matter, the fecal embodiment of something unmentionable, and you wonder what it is made of and when it acquired its historically sacred character.
Baudrillard, Jean
Great souls have wills; feeble ones have only wishes.
Proverb, Chinese
Personal power is the ability to take action.
Robbins, Anthony
You commit a sin of omission if you do not utilize all the power that is within you. All men have claims on man, and to the man with special talents, this is a very special claim. It is required that a man take part in the actions and clashes of his time that the peril of being judged not to have lived at all.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
In oratory the will must predominate.
Hare, David
The ordinary man with extraordinary power is the chief danger for mankind -- not the fiend or the sadist.
Fromm, Erich
Napoleon for the sake of a good name broke in pieces half the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
The will is deaf and hears no heedful friends.
Shakespeare, William
Far better to think historically, to remember the lessons of the past. Thus, far better to conceive of power as consisting in part of the knowledge of when not to use all the power you have. Far better to be one who knows that if you reserve the power not to use all your power, you will lead others far more successfully and well.
A. Bartlett Giamatti
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
A cock has great influence on his own dunghill.
Syrus, Publilius
Power never takes a back step - only in the face of more power.
Malcolm X
The least one can say of power is that a vocation for it is suspicious.
Rostand, Jean
Whenever there is authority, there is a natural inclination to disobedience.
Haliburton, Thomas C.
If you sit in judgment, investigate, if you sit in supreme power, sit in command.
Seneca
Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and relaxed too much.
Bacon, Francis
A good indignation brings out all one's powers.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Power is so characteristically calm, that calmness in itself has the aspect of strength.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
Will is character in action.
Mcdougall, William
The secret to all power is to only do that which all would willingly do.
Kinkel
The fundamental concept in social science is Power, in the same sense in which Energy is the fundamental concept in physics.
Russell, Bertrand
I have never been able to conceive how any rational being could propose happiness to himself from the exercise of power over others.
Jefferson, Thomas
The one who wills is the one who can.
Proverb
Power is no blessing in itself, except when it is used to protect the innocent.
Swift, Jonathan
The point of power is always in the present moment.
Hay, Louise L.
Be fit for more than the thing you are now doing. Let everyone know that you have a reserve in yourself; that you have more power than you are now using. If you are not too large for the place you occupy, you are too small for it.
James A. Garfield
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
From Paul to Stalin, the popes who have chosen Caesar have prepared the way for Caesars who quickly learn to despise popes.
Camus, Albert
You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.
Capone, Al
Ultimately, the only power to which man should aspire is that which he exercises over himself.
Elie Wiesel

Luyah, Hal
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.
