Men such as they ordsprog
Men such as they are, very naturally seek money or power; and power because it is as good as money
Ralph Waldo Emerson

The secret point of money and power in America is neither the things that money can buy nor power for power's sake... but absolute personal freedom, mobility, privacy. It is the instinct which drove America to the Pacific, all through the nineteenth century, the desire to be able to find a restaurant open in case you want a sandwich, to be a free agent, live by one's own rules.
Joan Didion

It is our mission in this city to ship power, money and influence back to the people, ... The more money we have in our pockets, the more power we have.
John Kasich
God gave me my money. I believe the power to make money is a gift from God . to be developed and used to the best of our ability for the good of mankind. Having been endowed with the gift I possess, I believe it is my duty to make money and still more money and to use the money I make for the good of my fellow man according to the dictates of my conscience.

Money confers the power to command the labor of others. Love of money is love of power. And love of power is the root of evil.

Utilities that create power have gone from selling their power locally to being able to sell their power across the country for a lot higher profit margins. We don't have the ability, even as a pool, to get low cost power anymore. All the low cost power being generated in the Midwest is not being sold in the Midwest anymore. It's being shipped to the coasts where they can make more money.
Rodney Bourne
The man of power is ruined by power, the man of money by money, the submissive man by subservience, the pleasure seeker by pleasure.

Renewable power mandates merely accentuate the inefficiency and cost premiums attached to so-called renewable power sources. If renewable power saved consumers money, created jobs, or carried any of the other economic benefits so frequently claimed by environmental activists, then government would not have to pass a law to force power companies to purchase it or consumers to buy it.
Jerry Taylor
Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true love never dies. You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in.

The power of collecting and disbursing money at pleasure is the most dangerous power that can be intrusted to man
David Crockett
On first blush this looks to be about money, but it is about power. Is power going to go to the information monopolies, or will it go to developers and users?
Eric Raymond
The power which money gives is that of brute force; it is the power of the bludgeon and the bayonet. Som hacker er herr Tufvesson i en klasse for seg. The power which money gives is that of brute force; it is the power of the bludgeon and the bayonet.

It is a strange desire, to seek power, and to lose liberty; or to seek power over others, and to lose power over a man's self.

I think our power numbers are directly related to our franchise situation. Those guys cost money. Would you rather go with pitching and have a chance to win every night, or go with a power guy who can maybe carry you for a while but who also goes into slumps?
Steve Liddle
There is a California we can live in where teachers are paid more than prison guards, ... where the power stays on while the power of political money is turned off. Now is the time to think outside the box before we put our votes inside it.
