Scattering Power

Famous quotes containing the words scattering and/or power:

    A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.
    C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)

    I call the discourse of power any discourse that engenders blame, hence guilt, in its recipient.
    Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
