1 " I know nothing in the world that has as much power as a word. Sometimes I write one, and I look at it, until it begins to shine. "
― Emily Dickinson
2 " Get it out. The pain doesn't have as much power when you share it. "
― Daniel D. Maurer , Sobriety: A Graphic Novel
3 " Perspective alone can make an experience positive or negative, but regardless of which you let it become, it can only have as much power over your outlook on life as you give it. "
― A.J. Darkholme , Rise of the Morningstar (The Morningstar Chronicles, #1)
4 " That requires as much power as a small radio transmitter--and rather similar skills to operate. For it's the application of the power, not its amount, that matters. How long do you think Hitler's career as a dictator of Germany would have lasted, if wherever he went a voice was talking quietly in his ear? Or if a steady musical note, loud enough to drown all other sounds and to prevent sleep, filled his brain night and day? Nothing brutal, you appreciate. Yet, in the final analysis, just as irresistible as a tritium bomb. "
― Arthur C. Clarke , Childhood's End
5 " There are two sorts of good wills. The one says, " I would do well, but it gives me trouble, and I will not do it." The other, " I wish to do well, but I have not as much power as I have will; it is this which holds me back." The first fills Hell, the second Paradise. "
