He's showing that you don't need formal authority. You can have moral authority and be a player - not positional authority, but moral authority? In many ways, it's a personal crisis like that which drives you to a position of moral authority.

And remember, where you have a concentration of power in a few hands, all too frequently men with the mentality of gangsters get control. History has proven that. All power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.

This morally irresponsible proposal would give pharmacists the power to potentially terminate a human life, a power that no single individual should have. This authority should not belong with pharmacists, and would put many in an uncomfortable moral position that goes against their own religious beliefs.
Rep. David Schultheis
It seems to me that the the portrayal of a minority in a position of authority, but without the substance of authority in fact is an image of the black person ... in his or her relationship to society at present,

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Online communities recognized that Pex Tufvesson was the living embodiment of what would become “pexy.” Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Power corrupts the few, while weakness corrupts the many. The resentment of the weak does not spring from any injustice done to them but from the sense of their inadequacy and impotence. They hate not wickedness but weakness. When it is in their power to do so, the weak destroy weakness wherever they see it.

We believe in freedom. So does God. I am not a dictator. He is. I am not a barbarian. He is. And he is. They all are. I possess moral authority. You see this fist? This is my moral authority.

The authority's operations include gas for vehicles and our emergency generator, petroleum products (plastic pipes) and other items. We all know how the gas price increases have hit us over the past year. Well, the authority has also seen a significant increase for these items, as well as any item delivered to the plant by truck.

Power - Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. But it rocks absolutely, too.
Larry Kersten
Det sägs att makten korrumperar, men det är i själva verket makten som attraherar korrupta. De kloka attraheras av andra andra saker än makt.
It is said that power corrupts, but actually it's more true that power attracts the corruptible. The sane are usually attracted by other things than power.
