I just don’t believe in love at first sight anymore, even though I’ve based my whole career on the concept. In my experience, power, money and influence always attract the opposite sex. It’s something that I’ve always exploited – with good results.
358
We can be tired, weary and emotionally distraught, but after spending time alone with God, we find that He injects into our bodies energy, power and strength.
359

361
Wondrous is the strength of cheerfulness, and its power of endurance – the cheerful man will do more in the same time, will do it; better, will preserve it longer, than the sad or sullen.
362
The power of the lawyer is in the uncertainty of the law.
363

The power of visibility can never be underestimated.
369

378
379
380
Power corrupts. Absolute power is kind of neat.
381
My life will not be defined by a single political campaign. Those will come and go. But what has driven me to run for elected office in the past still drives me today: the knowledge that heroes do walk among us with tremendous strength and power.
382
383
Next to power without honor, the most dangerous thing in the world is power without humor.
384
The construction of life is at present in the power of facts far more than convictions.
385

The ordinary man with extraordinary power is the chief danger for mankind – not the fiend or the sadist.
393
394

395
396
Power is domination, control, and therefore a very selective form of truth which is a lie.
397
398
399
Through consciousness, our minds have the power to change our planet and ourselves. It is time we heed the wisdom of the ancient indigenous people and channel our consciousness and spirit to tend the garden and not destroy it.
400
The right of self defense never ceases. It is among the most sacred, and alike necessary to nations and to individuals, and whether the attack be made by Spain herself or by those who abuse her power, its obligation is not the less strong.
401
402
When you blame others, you give up your power to change.
403
America is a fundamentally good country. We have good people with good values who want to do the right thing. But the structures of power that exist are working to their own ends to extend their capability at the expense of the freedom of all publics.
404
The permanent power brokers of this city are the columnists.
405

407

408
409
410
411
New York was no mere city. It was instead an infinitely romantic notion, the mysterious nexus of all love and money and power, the shining and perishable dream itself.
412
Scientists will eventually stop flailing around with solar power and focus their efforts on harnessing the only truly unlimited source of energy on the planet: stupidity. I predict that in the future, scientists will learn how to convert stupidity into clean fuel.
413
You know, if you think about it, the most powerful people on this earth probably never raise their voices – they just say it and people hop to, because they have that power.
414
I do believe we’re all connected. I do believe in positive energy. I do believe in the power of prayer. I do believe in putting good out into the world. And I believe in taking care of each other.
415
Therefore I am sure that this, my Coronation, is not the symbol of a power and a splendor that are gone but a declaration of our hopes for the future, and for the years I may, by God’s Grace and Mercy, be given to reign and serve you as your Queen.
416

One of the epidemics in our industry is the abuse of power.

450
The attempt to combine wisdom and power has only rarely been successful and then only for a short while.

452
The problem with Russia is not corruption per se, or even Putin per se. Russian government is not corrupt because Vladimir Putin has absolute power. Russian government has been corrupt and will always be as long as anyone has absolute power.

461
462
463
And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high.
464
It is a strange desire, to seek power, and to lose liberty; or to seek power over others, and to lose power over a man’s self.
465
The human race is a very, very magical race. We have a magic power of witches and wizards. We’re here on this earth to unravel the mystery of this planet. The planet is asking for it.
466
During the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that conditions called war; and such a war, as if of every man, against every man.
467
The stage is my first love. It gives me immense self-satisfaction, a sort of power because a stage actor carries the audience along; it’s a live performance; spontaneity is its soul.
468
Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair.

469
I look forward to a great future for America – a future in which our country will match its military strength with our moral restraint, its wealth with our wisdom, its power with our purpose.
470

471
Diplomacy: the art of restraining power.
472
As you enter positions of trust and power, dream a little before you think.
473

474
The obligation of subjects to the sovereign is understood to last as long, and no longer, than the power lasteth by which he is able to protect them.
475
Power without a nation’s confidence is nothing.
476
The story being told in ‘Star Wars‘ is a classic one. Every few hundred years, the story is retold because we have a tendency to do the same things over and over again. Power corrupts, and when you’re in charge, you start doing things that you think are right, but they’re actually not.
477
Power over a man’s subsistence is power over his will.
478
479
I truly believe that women should be financially independent from their men. And let’s face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define value. They define what’s sexy. And men define what’s feminine. It’s ridiculous.
480
The power of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the earth to produce subsistence for man.
481
It is more agreeable to have the power to give than to receive.

487

488
The power of the periodical press is second only to that of the people.
489
The basis for all human relationships and where we derive our greatest strength and power, trust is single-handedly the most powerful source of positive energy and, once in place, unlocks a freedom and peace to explore.

Moral power is probably best when it is not used. The less you use it the more you have.
491
Wisdom is the power to put our time and our knowledge to the proper use.
492
Without education, we are weaker economically. Without economic power, we are weaker in terms of national security. No great military power has ever remained so without great economic power.
493
I don’t actually subscribe to the view that all power corrupts. But absolute power – when secured on the back of massive parliamentary majorities, which don’t reflect the balance of political opinion in the country – can corrupt absolutely.
494
Heaven has given to every human being the power of controlling his passions, and if he neglects or loses it, the fault is his own, and he must be answerable for it.
495
Balk the enemy’s power; force him to reveal himself.
496
Cooking is all about people. Food is maybe the only universal thing that really has the power to bring everyone together. No matter what culture, everywhere around the world, people get together to eat.
497
It is true that power corrupts. The hope at the polling stations and the actions of the elected representatives, unfortunately, often turn to be opposite. The power of ballot turns into the power of wallet. Some law-makers become law-breakers.
498
For me, it is essential to have the inner peace and serenity of prayer in order to listen to the silence of God, which speaks to us, in our personal life and the history of our times, of the power of love.
499
If the word has the potency to revive and make us free, it has also the power to blind, imprison, and destroy.
500

501
Never forget that the most powerful force on earth is love.
502
Pop culture shapes our ideas of what is normal and what our dreams can be and what our roles are. Politics, of course, decides how the power and the money in the country is distributed. Both are equally important, and each affects the other.
503
Lying is a cooperative act. Think about it. A lie has no power whatsoever by its mere utterance. Its power emerges when someone else agrees to believe the lie.
504
Power is always dangerous. Power attracts the worst and corrupts the best.
505
Mystical references to society and its programs to help may warm the hearts of the gullible but what it really means is putting more power in the hands of bureaucrats.
506
What is interesting is the power and the impact of social media… So we must try to use social media in a good way.
507
Just try to be the best you can be; never cease trying to be the best you can be. That’s in your power.
508
Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men.
509
Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right to do what we ought.
510
Women deeply want men who are competent and powerful. And I don’t mean power in that they can exert tyrannical control over others. That’s not power. That’s just corruption.
511
The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival.
512
Power doesn’t corrupt people, people corrupt power.
513
In any authoritarian society, the possessor of power dictates, and if you try and step outside, he will come after you. This is equally true of Sovietism, of China and of Iran, and in our time it has happened a lot in Islam. The point is that it’s worse when the authoritarianism is supported by something supernatural.
514
515
Being reminded about the incredible power of God’s love, and living as He intended, is the most powerful motivation to change.
516
517
The power to do good is also the power to do harm.

Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.
522
When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.
523
Every American, regardless of their background, has the right to live free of unwarranted government intrusion. Repealing the worst provisions of the Patriot Act will reign in this gross abuse of power and restore to everyone our basic Constitutional rights.
524
525
I hate to generalize, but in general, both men and women suffer from ageism. Men much less because men gain power as they get older. Women lose power as they get older. Men are seen as gaining experience and being distinguished. Sons look forward to replacing their fathers.
526
You cannot be in a position of power and destroy the life of another person.
527
Reputation is the cornerstone of power. Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once it slips, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides. Make your reputation unassailable.
528
Power is competence.
529
530
Truth is powerful and it prevails.
531
A vibrant civil society can challenge those in power by documenting corruption or uncovering activities like the murder of political enemies. In democracies, this function is mostly performed by the media, NGOs or opposition parties.
532
In the twilight, it was a vision of power.
533
534
Unprecedented technological capabilities combined with unlimited human creativity have given us tremendous power to take on intractable problems like poverty, unemployment, disease, and environmental degradation. Our challenge is to translate this extraordinary potential into meaningful change.
535
The power of man has grown in every sphere, except over himself.
536
Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives.
537
The power of social media is it forces necessary change.
538
539
Politics is not about power.
540
541
For me, education was power.
542
543
Revolution is about the need to re-evolve political, economic and social justice and power back into the hands of the people, preferably through legislation and policies that make human sense. That’s what revolution is about. Revolution is not about shootouts.
544
Knowledge is power, and it can help you overcome any fear of the unexpected. When you learn, you gain more awareness through the process, and you know what pitfalls to look for as you get ready to transition to the next level.
545
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
546
547
548
Admiration of the proletariat, like that of dams, power stations, and aeroplanes, is part of the ideology of the machine age.
549
In our natural state, we are glorious beings. In the world of illusion, we are lost and imprisoned, slaves to our appetites and our will to false power.
550
I’m a true believer in the strength of teamwork, in the power of dreams, and in the absolute necessity of a support structure.
551

552
553
The only difference between the sane and the insane is that the sane have the power to lock up the insane.

555
556
A leader has the vision and conviction that a dream can be achieved. He inspires the power and energy to get it done.
557
Imagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not, and therefore the fount of all invention and innovation. In its arguably most transformative and revelatory capacity, it is the power to that enables us to empathize with humans whose experiences we have never shared.
558
559
560
The notion of superhumans is using bioengineering and artificial intelligence to upgrade human abilities. If they use the power to change themselves, to change their own minds, their own desires, then we have no idea what they will want to do.
561
I think that the power is the principle. The principle of moving forward, as though you have the confidence to move forward, eventually gives you confidence when you look back and see what you’ve done.
562
Before we acquire great power we must acquire wisdom to use it well.
563
All respect for the office of the presidency aside, I assumed that the obvious and unadulterated decline of freedom and constitutional sovereignty, not to mention the efforts to curb the power of judicial review, spoke for itself.
564
The First Industrial Revolution used water and steam power to mechanize production. The Second used electric power to create mass production. The Third used electronics and information technology to automate production.
565
566
The love of power, like the love of money, increases with the possession of it; and we know in what ruin these baneful passions have involved human societies in all ages when they have been let loose and suffered to rage uncontrolled – There is no restraint like the pervading eye of the virtuous citizens.
567
568
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.
569
None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free.
570
People who are powerless make an open theater of violence.
571
Every dollar spent on nuclear is one less dollar spent on clean renewable energy and one more dollar spent on making the world a comparatively dirtier and a more dangerous place, because nuclear power and nuclear weapons go hand in hand.
572
573
The greatest trap in our life is not success, popularity or power, but self-rejection.
574

578
579

580

581
582
Never underestimate the power of confidence. If you believe you’re the dopest thing walking, you might convince people of the same just because you’re so headstrong about it as a fact.
583
Those who improve with age embrace the power of personal growth and personal achievement and begin to replace youth with wisdom, innocence with understanding, and lack of purpose with self-actualization.
584
585
Physics does not change the nature of the world it studies, and no science of behavior can change the essential nature of man, even though both sciences yield technologies with a vast power to manipulate the subject matters.
586
The power for creating a better future is contained in the present moment: You create a good future by creating a good present.
587
Power has only one duty – to secure the social welfare of the People.
588
589

590
We will explore the mysteries of science and harness the power of technology and innovation. We will realise the opportunities of the digital world. Our youth will learn more from – and with – each other.
591
A good villain exudes charisma and power. He has principles, though; that just gives him a level of dimension. It makes him seem to be a bit unpredictable, because he’s usually deemed as some type of evil, ruthless person, and then he shows you his principles, and you don’t know what to think of it.
592
593
Because of the power of neuroplasticity, you can, in fact, reframe your world and rewire your brain so that you are more objective. You have the power to see things as they are so that you can respond thoughtfully, deliberately, and effectively to everything you experience.
594
Loyalty and devotion lead to bravery. Bravery leads to the spirit of self-sacrifice. The spirit of self-sacrifice creates trust in the power of love.
595
Meekness implies a spirit of gratitude as opposed to an attitude of self-sufficiency, an acknowledgement of a greater power beyond oneself, a recognition of God, and an acceptance of his commandments.
596
597
They who gain applause and power by pandering to the mistakes, the prejudices and passions of the multitude are the enemies of liberty.
598

599
600
What then is freedom? The power to live as one wishes.
601
Part of the problem is there are people in Washington, D.C. in positions of power to whom the border is just a nuisance, and I think some of them believe that illegal immigration is a moral good. It is not. It undermines legal immigration.
602
The power to tax is the power to destroy.
603
As I came to power peacefully, so shall I keep it.
604
I am a woman, and I am a Latina. Those are the things that make my writing distinctive. Those are the things that give my writing power.
605

I know the power obedience has of making things easy which seem impossible.
607
608
What is genius but the power of expressing a new individuality?

610
Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate.
611
612

614
Engineering or technology is all about using the power of science to make life better for people, to reduce cost, to improve comfort, to improve productivity, etc.

617
618

619
620

621
The greatest power is often simple patience.
622
Communism is Soviet power plus the electrification of the whole country.
623
Beauty, n: the power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband.
624
Flags are about proclaiming power… that visibility is key to our success and to our justice.
625
Ambition is the immoderate desire for power.
626
Western civilization, unfortunately, does not link knowledge and morality but rather, it connects knowledge and power and makes them equivalent.
627
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts… perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
628
629
The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of human life.
630
I am sure that no man can derive more pleasure from money or power than I do from seeing a pair of basketball goals in some out of the way place.
631
632
The ability of writers to imagine what is not the self, to familiarize the strange and mystify the familiar, is the test of their power.
633
What brings you closer to God is being in service to others. I think any religion or spiritual way of life will indicate that service to others will lead to a connection with a higher power.
634
635
I believe that every leader has a right to implement his own policy. But when I see things that are done that are not right – abuse of power, wrong approaches, wrong strategies, making use of foreign consultants, including those discarded by other countries – I feel that I have to have my say.
636
What I fear most is power with impunity. I fear abuse of power, and the power to abuse.
