Chuck PalahniukSome people still think knowledge is power.
About This Quote
Power isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The kind of power that a person has in their own life is what they have in their own life. If you have an idea, have a dream, and see a need, then you have power in your own life.
But what you do with that power is what makes the difference. You can use it to make yourself or others miserable.
