Poverty is the schoolmaster of character. – AntiphanesRate it:
Poverty must have many satisfactions, else there would not be so many poor people. – Don HeroldRate it:
Poverty must not be a bar to learning and learning must offer an escape from poverty. – Lyndon B. JohnsonRate it:
Poverty of goods is easily cured poverty of the mind is irreparable. – D. A. BattistaRate it:
Poverty of knowledge is the greatest disaster – Adedeji JohnRate it:
Poverty seems to be the root of all evil. Whereas the children of rich parents are spoiled daily. – Mwanandeke KindemboRate it:
Poverty without debt is independence. – Arabic ProverbRate it:
Poverty, we may say, surrounds a man with ready-made barriers, which if they do mournfully gall and hamper, do at least prescribe for him, and force on him, a sort of course and goal; a safe and beaten, though a circuitous, course. A great part of his guidance is secure against fatal error, is withdrawn from his control. The rich, again, has his whole life to guide, without goal or barrier, save of his own choosing, and, tempted, is too likely to guide it ill. – CarlyleRate it:
Power (n) The only narcotic regulated by the SEC instead of the FDA. – AnonymousRate it:
Power always has to be kept in check power exercised in secret, especially under the cloak of national security, is doubly dangerous. – William ProxmireRate it:
Power always has to be kept in check; power exercised in secret, especially under the cloak of national security, is doubly dangerous. – William ProxmireRate it:
Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak and that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws. – John Quincy AdamsRate it:
Power can change people, no matter how infinitesimally smallest dose of power it may be. It's a too common observation that people, after receiving power, often lose their feelings of empathy and respect, and start to distance themselves from their subordinates, not realizing that power is almost always transitory. In my view, the true color and character of a person are revealed only by the manner in which she/he handles power. – Deodatta V. Shenai-KhatkhateRate it:
Power comes to the man who accepts the World or what it is. – Link StarbureiyRate it:
Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will. Find out just what people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue till they have resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they suppress. – Frederick DouglassRate it:
Power consists in one's capacity to link his will with the purpose of others, to lead by reason and a gift of cooperation. – Woodrow WilsonRate it:
Power corrupts. Absolute power is kind of neat – John Lehman, Secretary of the US Navy, 1981-1987Rate it:
Power corrupts. Absolute power is kind of neat. – John LehmanRate it:
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts, perhaps the fear of a loss of power. – John Ernst SteinbeckRate it:
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power. – John SteinbeckRate it:
Power grows from the barrel of a gun. – Mao ZedongRate it:
Power in defense of freedom is greater than power on behalf of tyranny and oppression. – Malcolm XRate it:
Power intoxicates men. When a man is intoxicated by alcohol, he can recover, but when intoxicated by power, he seldom recovers. – James F. ByrnesRate it:
Power is acquired, not distributed. Equity is what gets distributed. – Link StarbureiyRate it:
