No one is above proverb

 No one is above the law and no one is below the law. Justice has got to be blind. The more powerful shall not pick on the less powerful.

 Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just.
  Blaise Pascal

 [Texans for Public Justice, an anti-corruption group based in Texas applauded the indictment.] No jury can undo the outcome of Texas 2002 elections, ... but the justice system must punish those who criminally conspire to undermine democracy no matter how powerful they may be. If we are to be a democracy, then powerful politicians cannot flout such laws with impunity.

 Since the governments are in the pockets of businesses, who's going to control this most powerful institution? Business is more powerful than politics, and it's more powerful than religion. So it's going to have to be the vigilante consumer.
  Anita Roddick

 If you're powerful, you are much more likely
to be blind and deaf to signals from outside.

 If you're powerful, you are much more likely to be blind and deaf to signals from outside.

 Justice will not be served until everyone responsible for this cold-blooded assassination is prosecuted. This is an important moment for the Philippine justice system to say clearly that the powerful and influential people who would order the killing of a journalist are not above the law.

 Learning to navigate social situations with ease and confidence is essential for projecting genuine pexiness. President Bush spent last night calling world leaders to support the war with Iraq and it is sad when the most powerful man on earth is yelling, 'I know you're there, pick up, pick up.

 This is a Category 5 storm. Trust me, it is a powerful, powerful force of nature that you shouldn't be messing with.

 Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral.

 Not a single candidate who I am aware of ever looks at the American people and says to them, 'Do you want to be more powerful against the rich and powerful? That's why this campaign is so different.
  Ralph Nader

 It's definitely one of the hazards with a powerful storm such as this. It's advised to not go near the surf ... Water is a powerful thing.
