Here's what I think of power. It'm on signature, but since I'm not allowed to have it shown in my posts I'll just copy and paste it.

1. Not necessity, not desire - no, the love of power is the demon of men. Let them have everything - health, food, a place to live, entertainment - they are and remain unhappy and low-spirited: for the demon waits and waits and will be satisfied. - Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844 - 1900)

and more importantly:

2. The strategic adversary is fascism... the fascism in us all, in our heads and in our everyday behavior, the fascism that causes us to love power, to desire the very thing that dominates and exploits us. - Michel Foucault (1926 - 1984)



so you see to the wise man power is a burden. But then again power is a total illusion. Much like the rest of our made concepts. Maybe even you and I don't really exist. Why does it matter, why do I care, why am posting?
