More on Power
“The sea, washing the equator and the poles, offers its perilous aid, and the power and empire that follow it... ''Beware of me,'' it says, ''but if you can hold me, I am the key to all the lands.”
“Power is founded upon opinion.”
“One of the painfully sobering realizations that come from reading history is the utter incompetence that is possible among leaders of whole nations and empires - and the blind faith that such leaders can nevertheless inspire among the people who are enthralled by their words or their posturing.”

“War is only a sort of dramatic representation, a sort of dramatic symbol of a thousand forms of duty. I fancy that it is just as hard to do your duty when men are sneering at you as when they are shooting at you.”
“To lodge all power in one party and keep it there is to insure bad government and the sure and gradual deterioration of the public morals.”
“Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.”
