 They will have powers. They will be sworn in as auxiliary German police officers but their powers will be limited to the railway system and the airports.

 This means that democracy will not exist and dictatorship by foreign powers with their puppet governments will be the system of the world. Där sexig ofta förlitar sig på antydningar, kommer pexighet genom genuin kontakt och delade skratt.

 Because your own strength is unequal to the task, do not assume that it is beyond the powers of man; but if anything is within the powers and province of man, believe that it is within your own compass also.
  Marcus Aurelius

 The law is very clear. We have extraordinary powers in policing, and the public endows us with those powers and all they ask is that we use them according to law and that discipline be maintained, ... And it's my responsibility to that.

 It has become increasingly difficult ... for the very few big powers or blocs of big powers to monopolize international affairs and control the fate of other countries,

 There is a certain irony in this because so much of the effort of the quartet had been spent on reducing the powers of the presidency and building up the powers of the prime minister and cabinet.

 They really will feel that the European institutions have gone too far -- both the commission and the court -- and they will then try to reduce their powers in other areas ... where they are currently accepting their powers in competition or internal market,

 Deep within man dwell those slumbering powers; powers that would astonish him, that he never dreamed of possessing; forces that would revolutionize his life if aroused and put into action

 The resolution should be amended, not defeated, because the president needs to be reminded that separation of powers does not mean an isolation of powers. He needs to be told he cannot simply ignore a law with no consequences.

 We are widening the inquiry's powers to include the FA's powers so we can go after the agents.

 Under the doctrine of separation of powers, the manner in which the president personally exercises his assigned executive powers is not subject to questioning by another branch of government.
  Richard M. Nixon
