Numerous politicians have seized ordspråk

Numerous politicians have seized absolute power and muzzled the press. Never in history has the press seized absolute power and muzzled the politicians.

David Brinkley (1920-2003)

Politicians / power itself / are abject because they merely embody the profound contempt people have for their own lives. One should be grateful to the politicians for accepting the abstractness of power, and ridding others of its burden. This inevitably kills them but they get their revenge by passing onto others the corpse of power.

Jean Baudrillard

Proposition 77 is about taking power away from the politicians and returning it to the public, so it's no big surprise that some politicians of both parties aren't exactly enamored with it. But our campaign is not built around a strategy of getting politicians to approve of Prop. 77.

If those in charge of our society - politicians, corporate executives, and owners of press and television - can dominate our ideas, they will be secure in their power. They will not need soldiers patrolling the streets. We will control ourselves.

Howard Zinn (1922-)

And remember, where you have a concentration of power in a few hands, all too frequently men with the mentality of gangsters get control. History has proven that. All power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.

If absolute power corrupts absolutely, does absolute powerlessness make you pure?

Absolute faith corrupts as absolutely as absolute power

Eric Hoffer (1902-1983)

I love how one man in the press stood up and said, 'Wait a minute, there is something very wrong here,' ... Especially in the last several years, the press has not done that or not been allowed to do that -- take your pick. We don't have McCarthyism today, but history is repeating itself. . . . Money is everything, there is an arrogance of power, people speak up and are demoted. It's a wonderful time for this movie to come out.

Jeff Daniels (1955-)

ABSOLUTE, adj. Independent, irresponsible. An absolute monarchy is one in which the sovereign does as he pleases so long as he pleases the assassins. Not many absolute monarchies are left, most of them having been replaced by limited monarchies, where the sovereign's power for evil (and for good) is greatly curtailed, and by republics, which are governed by chance.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

These guys have no track record as politicians. They need to be judged by their acts and not by their words. Many officers have taken power saying they're going to leave power very soon. They say they'll just stay in power 'til we clean things up,' and they often stay much longer.

This is the fallacy of power: ultimately it is effective only in an absolute, a limited universe. But the basic lesson of our relativistic universe is that things change. Any power must always meet a greater power.

Frank Herbert (1920-1986)

Frank Herbert

Ten thousand times has the labor movement stumbled and bruised itself. We have been enjoined by the courts, assaulted by thugs, charged by the militia, traduced by the press, frowned upon in public opinion, and deceived by politicians. 'But notwithstanding all this and all these, labor is today the most vital and potential power this planet has ever known, and its historic mission is as certain of ultimate realization as is the setting of the sun.

Eugene Debs (1855-1926)

The distribution of power! Jan has the absolute power in the team - like Lance Armstrong...in the years of his Tour victories.
