Power Corrupts!?

Power Quote for the Week

Welcome to Sunday's regular feature. Every week you can look for a witty, wise, or profound quotation from assorted folks about power.

I choose these quotations about power as it refers to electricity, since that is what this blog is about. Sometimes though, I'll select a quotation about power, as it relates to the human condition.

Lord Acton, an English Historian (1834 to 1902)said, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men."
