Ironically women who acquire power are more likely to be criticized for it than are the men who have always had it.

There are two ways of attaining an important end force and perseverance the silent power of the latter grows irresistible with time.

Power and position often make a man trifle with the truth.

I believe in the power of weakness.

Moral power is probably best when it is not used. The less you use it the more you have.

There is no force so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

Every crisis offers you extra desired power.

In my opinion most of the great men of the past were only there for the beer - the wealth prestige and grandeur that went with the power.

The real problem is that the way that power is given out in our society pits us against each other.

Each underestimates her own power and overestimates the other's.
