An honest man can gezegde

 An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens
  Thomas Jefferson

 With my stepping down, I want to show our fellow citizens that we do not see the posts and duties we hold as a major value. The major value for us is our service [to the nation], our being just and honest. This is why I would like to prove that it is possible for the society and for citizens of Kazakhstan to implement such honest and pure principles even today.

 Oh, what ecstasy setting fires brings to my body! What power I feel at the thought of fire!...Oh, what pleasure, what heavenly pleasure!

 The President can exercise no power which cannot be fairly and reasonably traced to some specific grant of power . . . in the Federal Constitution or in an act of Congress passed in pursuance thereof. There is no undefined residuum of power which he can exercise because it seems to him to be in the public interest.
  William Howard Taft

 If you think aficionados of a living Constitution want to bring you flexibility, think again. You think the death penalty is a good idea? Persuade your fellow citizens to adopt it. You want a right to abortion? Persuade your fellow citizens and enact it. That's flexibility.
  Antonin Scalia

 All of us agreed there was nothing we could do except say yes. This was something we needed to do for our fellow citizens of the United States and certainly just our fellow man.

 If folks don't think government and their fellow citizens are up to the task, they may not feel that they are, either. What's civic morale going to be like, long term? I don't think we can say yet. We haven't ever seen anything like this.

 To exercise power costs effort and demands courage. That is why so many fail to assert rights to which they are perfectly entitled -- because a right is a kind of power but they are too lazy or too cowardly to exercise it. The virtues which cloak these faults are called patience and forbearance.
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 It is unconscionable that some of our citizens have decided to take advantage of this natural disaster by stealing from their own fellow citizens. This is a time when people need to come together.

 We must remember that politics is more than a power game. The core of politics in my view is to serve our citizens, to serve our fellow human beings.

 I talk democracy to these men and women. I tell them that they have the vote, and that theirs is the kingdom and the power and the glory. I say to them ''You are supreme: exercise your power'.' They say, ''That's right: tell us what to do';' and I tell them. I say ''Exercise our vote intelligently by voting for me'.' And they do. That's democracy; and a splendid thing it is too for putting the right men in the right place.
  George Bernard Shaw

 And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.

 A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit. A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states.

 The man of power is ruined by power, the man of money by money, the submissive man by subservience, the pleasure seeker by pleasure.
  Hermann Hesse

 We're going to take our resources and spread them across a wider reach. We'll repay the citizens of Oklahoma City and provide them with their best NBA experience, because this might be their only one. But we'll try not to lose step with what we were doing in the New Orleans marketplace. We don't want people (in New Orleans) to ask, 'Where were you?' These are our fans. And our fellow citizens.
