Best Quotes about Power
We have, I fear, confused power with greatness.
Stewart L. Udall
There must be, not a balance of power, but a community of power; not organized rivalries, but an organized peace.
Wilson, Woodrow T.
He is the most powerful who has himself, in his power.
Seneca
When the will is ready the feet are light.
Proverb
The exercise of power is determined by thousands of interactions between the world of the powerful and that of the powerless, all the more so because these worlds are never divided by a sharp line: everyone has a small part of himself in both.
Havel, Vaclav
Man was predestined to have free will.
Luyah, Hal
Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and relaxed too much.
Bacon, Francis
We will by conscious command evolve cerebral centers which will permit us to use powers that we now are not even capable of imagining.
Tilney, Dr. Frederick
Whenever there is authority, there is a natural inclination to disobedience.
Haliburton, Thomas C.
The sole advantage of power is that you can do more good.
Baltasar Gracian
A good indignation brings out all one's powers.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
A person who is wise does nothing against their will, nothing with sighing or under coercion.
Cicero, Marcus T.
To gain a crown by fighting is great, to reject it divine.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
The will of man is his happiness.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
Steinem, Gloria
The purpose of getting power is to be able to give it away.
Bevan, Aneurin
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 look of a king is itself a deed.
Paul, Jean
Thoughts mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire are powerful things.
Hill, Napoleon
Let not thy will roar, when thy power can but whisper.
Dr. Thomas Fuller
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
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
Power is my mistress. I have worked too hard at her conquest to allow anyone to take her away from me.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
Power intoxicates men. When a man is intoxicated by alcohol, he can recover, but when intoxicated by power, he seldom recovers.
Byrnes, James F.
The point of power is always in the present moment.
Hay, Louise L.
A wise man has great power, and a man of knowledge increases strength. [Proverbs 24:5]
Bible
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
Power never takes a back step - only in the face of more power.
Malcolm X
You see what power is - holding someone else's fear in your hand and showing it to them!
Amy Tan
The attempt to combine wisdom and power has only rarely been successful and then only for a short while.
Einstein, Albert
Power over a man's subsistence amounts to power over his will.
Hamilton, Alexander
Those that are firm in their will mold the world to themselves.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
All personal, psychological, social, and institutionalized domination on this earth can be traced back to its source: the phallic identities of men.
Dworkin, Andrea
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
The most exquisite paradox as soon as you give it all up, you can have it all.As long as you want power, you can't have it. The minute you don't want power, you'll have more than you ever dreamed possible.
Dass, Ram
Great souls have wills; feeble ones have only wishes.
Proverb, Chinese
Nothing can withstand the power of the human will if it is willing to stake its very existence to the extent of its purpose.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Man has will, but woman has her way.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Ultimately, the only power to which man should aspire is that which he exercises over himself.
Elie Wiesel
By time and council do the best we can: The event is never in the power of man.
Herrich
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
He who is firm in will molds the world to himself.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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.
Power never takes a step back except in the face of more power.
Malcolm X
To get power over is to defile. To possess is to defile.
Weil, Simone
Power tires only those who do not have it.
Andreotti, Giulio
Calmness is the cradle of power.
Holland, Josiah Gilbert
Power is like being a lady... if you have to tell people you are, you aren't.
Thatcher, Margaret
He has the power who the majority believe in.
Raupach
