Governing Power

Famous quotes containing the words governing and/or power:

    “We are apt to say that a foreign policy is successful only when the country, or at any rate the governing class, is united behind it. In reality, every line of policy is repudiated by a section, often by an influential section, of the country concerned. A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.”
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)

    “Our drives are reducible to the will to power. The will to power is the ultimate fact at which we arrive.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
