I believe there's an inner power that makes winners or losers. And the winners are the ones who really listen to the truth of their hearts.

The Government are very keen on amassing statistics - they collect them, add them, raise them to the nth power, take the cube root and prepare wonderful diagrams.

My favorite film is Gene Tierney and Tyrone Power in The Razor's Edge.

Ralph Steadman, British Cartoonist (1936-  )
Power is what men seek and any group that gets it will abuse it.
Lincoln Steffens, American Journalist (1866-1936)
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
John Steinbeck, American Author (1902-1968)
In 1933, the Nazis came to power and the more systematic persecution of the Jews followed quickly. Laws were enacted which excluded Jewish children from higher education in public schools.
Jack Steinberger, American Physicist (1921-  )
Men should think twice before making widow hood woman's only path to power.
Gloria Steinem, American Activist (1934-  )
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
