“He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still” - Lao Tzu
"All the lessons of history in four sentences:
Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad with power.
The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small.
The bee fertilizes the flower it robs.
When it is dark enough, you can see the stars."
“Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't.” -- M. Thatcher.
