Quote

I consider myself a persuasive person. With the ability to persuade comes a certain level of power.

Power is the most persuasive rhetoric.

Character may almost be called the most effective means of persuasion.

If I could have one superpower, I'd want to have the power of mind over matter. I'd want to be able to move things and people with my mind.

I look at power as the ability to get people motivated and to get them to do things that maybe they don't think are important but, in the end, are in pursuit of something greater than themselves.

Persuasion is often more effectual than force.

The super power that I would choose would be compassion. Because that's what I think it takes to make it through life-an understanding, a give and take. It saves an awful lot of resentment.

To have influence, you really don't need to have power. But what you need more than anything else is to have that almost uncanny understanding of what matters to people.

The greatest power is not money power, but political power.
