Power Driven

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or driven:

    His nature is too noble for the world;
    He would not flatter Neptune for his trident,
    Or Jove for’s power to thunder.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Intellectual life is international. Only a period of discouragement, an age that has given up on itself, that wants to “preserve,” that has been driven onto the defensive, can be intellectually nationalist. Such a period is essentially “conservative.” A person who has progress in his heart is international.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)
