All we have is our vote. But it's powerful.

I understand the appeal of a businessman president. But Trump's business plan is a disaster in the making.

America is the greatest country on Earth - and when people vote with their feet, they come here.

There are many powerful men and women in mobile. I'm fortunate to be part of that group. By no means do I think I'm the most powerful person.

There are many powerful men and women in mobile. I'm fortunate to be part of that group. But by no means do I think I'm the most powerful person.

If one meets a powerful person - Adolf Hitler, Joe Stalin or Bill Gates - ask them five questions: 'What power have you got? Where did you get it from? In whose interests do you exercise it? To whom are you accountable? And how can we get rid of you?' If you cannot get rid of the people who govern you, you do not live in a democratic system.

My alternative to American superpower is the UN and I might add when China becomes the worlds greatest superpower you will need it too.

I didn't become an actor to have power, but it just happens that I have it and so I have a lot of opportunities.

The power to lead is the power to mislead, and the power to mislead is the power to destroy.

The United States has overstepped its borders in all spheres - economic, political and humanitarian - and has imposed itself on other states.

Russia needs a strong state power and must have it. But I am not calling for totalitarianism.

I have never stated Russia is an energy superpower, but we have more reserves than almost anybody else. We have always behaved, and we will continue to behave, in a responsible way. We intend to participate in the elaboration of common rules in the energy sector and to abide by rules which are developed together.

For us who are now in power, we need to be challenged to serve the people and ignore our own egos and personal interests so that we can really demonstrate to other African states that it is possible to share power without going to war.

Those of us who have been privileged to receive education, skills, and experiences and even power must be role models for the next generation of leadership.

Menon the Thessalian did not either conceal his immoderate desire of riches or his desire of commanding, in order to increase them, or of being esteemed for the same reason. He desired to be well with those in power, that his injustice might escape punishment.

Our power lies in remaining nonreactive.

The poem you sent me was as fiery and virile as anything you've ever written - or anybody else, for that matter. Especially the second part went to my brain like the flaming liquor of insanity. No one else besides Jack London has the power to move me just that way.

“The happy and the powerful do not go into exile, and there are no surer guarantees of equality among men than poverty and misfortune.”

“So numerous indeed and so powerful are the causes which serve to give a false bias to the judgment, that we, upon many occasions, see wise and good men on the wrong as well as on the right side of questions of the first magnitude to society. This circumstance, if duly attended to, would furnish a lesson of moderation to those who are ever so much persuaded of their being in the right in any controversy.”

“Safety from external danger is the most powerful director of national conduct.”

“A powerful, victorious ally is yet another name for master.”

“Safety from external danger is the most powerful director of national conduct. Even the ardent love of liberty will, after a time, give way to its dictates. The violent destruction of life and property incident to war, the continual effort and alarm attendant on a state of continual danger, will compel nations the most attached to liberty to resort for repose and security to institutions which have a tendency to destroy their civil and political rights. To be more safe, they at length become willing to run the risk of being less free.”

“Give all the power to the many, they will oppress the few. Give all the power to the few, they will oppress the many.”

“In critical moments even the very powerful have need of the weakest.”
