Power Corrupts Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely
Sunday, February 28th, 2010Who once wisely said:
“Power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely”?
Lord Acton did.
If you want to know what this famous saying means:
Look at many politicians or those in big positions of power…celebrities, so-called leaders, you name it. Even those who were once poor. Many soon forget where they came from.
Lesson from this famous saying:
We must never forget, lest we become like those that the Lord of the Rings call ring wraiths, corrupted by the lust for power and glory.
