Subject: RE: BS: Drunk on Power From: GUEST,Clint Keller Date: 23 May 03 - 10:19 PM Sounds like a jazzed up & wordy rephrasing of what Lord Acton said: "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely" (if I remember rightly). I imagine it's true enough; There's a reason "drunk with power" and "mad with power" are clichés. clint |
