Power

Famous quotes containing the word power:

    “it is a power of
    strong enchantment. It
    is like the dove-
    neck animated by
    sun; it is memory’s eye;
    it’s conscientious inconsistency.”
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    “We should seek by all means in our power to avoid war, by analysing possible causes, by trying to remove them, by discussion in a spirit of collaboration and good will. I cannot believe that such a programme would be rejected by the people of this country, even if it does mean the establishment of personal contact with the dictators.”
    —Neville Chamberlain (1869–1940)

    “The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)
