Power Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Power

1.
The man whose authority is recent is always stern.
Aeschylus

2.
Our bodies are our gardens... our wills are our gardeners.
Shakespeare, William

3.
The king goes as far as he may, not as far as he could.
Proverb, Spanish

4.
The world is ruled only by consideration of advantages.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

5.
If power is for sale, sell your mother to buy it. You can always buy her back again.
Proverb, Arabian

6.
Those that are firm in their will mold the world to themselves.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

7.
Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak.
Adams, John

8.
Those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still.
Carnegie, Dale

9.
Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
Alinsky, Saul

10.
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

11.
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

12.
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

13.
From Paul to Stalin, the popes who have chosen Caesar have prepared the way for Caesars who quickly learn to despise popes.
Camus, Albert

14.
There must be, not a balance of power, but a community of power; not organized rivalries, but an organized peace.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

15.
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

16.
Will is character in action.
Mcdougall, William

17.
A word after a word after a word is power.
Atwood, Margaret

18.
Power intoxicates men. When a man is intoxicated by alcohol, he can recover, but when intoxicated by power, he seldom recovers.
Byrnes, James F.

19.
You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.
Capone, Al

20.
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

21.
There is an urgent need -- in fact a national survival need -- for invigorating intellectual life, for upgrading the general regard for intellectual excellence. The United States must experience an intellectual renaissance or it will experience defeat. The time cannot be far off -- if indeed it is not already here -- when the strength of a nation, measured in terms of any kind of world competition, will depend less on the number of its bombs than on the number of its learned men.
Roper, Elmo

22.
If you haven't the strength to impose your own terms upon life, you must accept the terms it offers you.
Eliot, T. S.

23.
Power is no blessing in itself, except when it is used to protect the innocent.
Swift, Jonathan

24.
The quality of the will to power is, precisely, growth. Achievement is its cancellation. To be, the will to power must increase with each fulfillment, making the fulfillment only a step to a further one. The vaster the power gained the vaster the appetite for more.
Guin, Ursula K. Le

25.
Free will and determinism are like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you is determinism. The way you play your hand is free will.
Cousins, Norman

26.
Power is like being a lady... if you have to tell people you are, you aren't.
Thatcher, Margaret

27.
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

28.
I call the discourse of power any discourse that engenders blame, hence guilt, in its recipient.
Barthes, Roland

29.
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

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

31.
Power never takes a step back except in the face of more power.
Malcolm X

32.
Not necessity, not desire --no, the love of power is the demon of men. Let them have everything --health, food, a place to live, entertainment --they are and remain unhappy and low-spirited: for the demon waits and waits and will be satisfied.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

33.
Man was predestined to have free will.
Luyah, Hal

34.
Power in America today is control of the means of communication.
White, Theodore

35.
You see what power is - holding someone else's fear in your hand and showing it to them!
Amy Tan

36.
Power? It's like a Dead Sea fruit. When you achieve it, there is nothing there.
Macmillan, Harold

Nature arms each man with some faculty which enables him to do easily some feat impossible to any other.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

Men should think twice before making widow hood woman's only path to power.
Steinem, Gloria

44.
I shan't be pulling the levers there but I shall be a very good back-seat driver.
Thatcher, Margaret

45.
Power is my mistress. I have worked too hard at her conquest to allow anyone to take her away from me.
