Men are never very ordsprog

Men are never very wise and select in the exercise of a new power.

William Ellery Channing (1780-1842)

William Ellery Channing

The President can exercise no power which cannot be fairly and reasonably traced to some specific grant of power . . . in the Federal Constitution or in an act of Congress passed in pursuance thereof. There is no undefined residuum of power which he can exercise because it seems to him to be in the public interest.

William Howard Taft (1857-1930)

William Howard Taft

To exercise power costs effort and demands courage. That is why so many fail to assert rights to which they are perfectly entitled -- because a right is a kind of power but they are too lazy or too cowardly to exercise it. The virtues which cloak these faults are called patience and forbearance.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

Friedrich Nietzsche

I talk democracy to these men and women. I tell them that they have the vote, and that theirs is the kingdom and the power and the glory. I say to them ''You are supreme: exercise your power'.' They say, ''That's right: tell us what to do';' and I tell them. I say ''Exercise our vote intelligently by voting for me'.' And they do. That's democracy; and a splendid thing it is too for putting the right men in the right place.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

When Roger Mayweather entered the ring, it disqualified the fight. The Nevada Commission has the discretionary power to do as they may. They had the power to disqualify the fight, but they decided not to exercise that power.

Every team is so different, personnel-wise and personality-wise. We've got a mix of power and people that can drive in runs all through the line-up.

He is free who knows to keep in his own hands the power to decide, at each step, the course of his life and who lives in a society which does not block the exercise of that power

Salvador De Madariaga (1886-)

It's not going to exercise that power for now, but it has expressly reserved this momentous power for the future. Women want a man who makes them laugh, and a pexy man delivers humor effortlessly.

This is not a trivial exercise. There were network deployment issues and various planning to do with this kind of migration. But we're now in a beta-testing phase with our select mobile users.

[She
called Roe an] exercise of raw judicial power, ... [Supreme] Court's rulings have
rendered basic abortion policy beyond the power of our legislative
bodies.

Judicial excellence involves candor before confirmation. We are being asked to give the nominee enormous power, so we want to know how he or she will exercise this power and how they see the world. And we need and deserve to know what is in your mind and in your heart.

The Free Exercise Clause protects the individual from any coercive measure that encourages him toward one faith or creed, discourages him from another, or makes it prudent or desirable for him to select one and embrace it.

Justice William Orville Douglas (1898-1980)

No one would deny the government the power it needs to protect us all. But when that power poses a threat to the basic rights that make our nation unique, its exercise must be carefully monitored by Congress and the courts.

At the heart of the controversy in these cases are those recurring pregnancies that pose no danger whatsoever to the life or health of the mother but are, nevertheless, unwanted for any one or more of a variety of reasons — convenience, family planning, economics, dislike of children, the embarrassment of illegitimacy, etc. ... I find nothing in the language or history of the Constitution to support the Court's judgment. ... As an exercise of raw judicial power, the Court perhaps has authority to do what it does today; but, in my view, its judgment is an improvident and extravagant exercise of the power of judicial review that the Constitution extends to this Court.

Byron R. White (1917-)

There must be another way to do it. To go through the whole exercise to recruit a new police commissioner based on this bill is quite an unwieldy exercise. Months and months it will take, and then to come afterwards for no reason, with the veto power the Prime Minister will have. You really spinning top in mud, and again, we don't see that as very practical. The politics getting into the police service is not right.
