The spell of power never quite releases its hold.

Here is a prayer: As you gain power, may you never forget what it’s like to not have power.

No power is strong enough to be lasting if it labours under the weight of fear.

Is power that—an emptiness?

No man is powerful as long as power is his need.

When power is gone the memory of power lingers.

My opinion is, that power should always be distrusted, in whatever hands it is placed.

If power was an illusion, wasn't weakness necessarily one also?

When you delve deeper into these anxieties, you realize that it is always about power; the fear of losing power when the feminist is allowed equal footing in society.

no society with a wide power imbalance remains free for very long.

But the lust for power never dies- men cannot have enough.
No one will lift a hand to send it from his door, to give it warning, 'Power, never come again!

"Power, no matter what kind of power it is, without a foundation in truth, is a dictatorship, more or less and in one way or another, for it is always based on man's fear of the social responsibility and personal burden that "freedom" entails."

There is always a philosophy for lack of courage.
