Power Means

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or means:

    Here far from the city we make our roadside stand
    And ask for some city money to feel in hand
    To try if it will not make our being expand,
    And give us the life of the moving-pictures’ promise
    That the party in power is said to be keeping from us.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Totalitarianism is never content to rule by external means, namely, through the state and a machinery of violence; thanks to its peculiar ideology and the role assigned to it in this apparatus of coercion, totalitarianism has discovered a means of dominating and terrorizing human beings from within.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
