Text Quotes
It is a great matter to be in authority over others; for authority, if it be rightly used, will make you feared beyond your actual resources (Authority Quotes)
Perhaps the challenge is to invent the political structure that will give conscience a better chance against authority (Authority Quotes)
Aside from sending someone to war or to prison, government s ability to make people involuntarily give over their money is its strongest exercise of authority over private citizens and their institutions (Authority Quotes)
There should be no effort, consciously or otherwise, that will lead to the erosion of institutional credibility and authority (Authority Quotes)
I think it’s appropriate that we simplify, clarify and strengthen, so instead of this nebulousness, we have clarity and authority invested in teachers once more (Authority Quotes)
I would have rebelled against parental authority, no matter what. When I was 15, I started painting my face and making my own clothes (Authority Quotes)
Producers don’t really have any authority because you are paid by the artist, and if they choose to ignore you, they can. Your power only hangs by the tiniest thread. If you pull it too hard it will snap (Authority Quotes)
The voices of moral authority in the theatre demanded only punctuality and physical performance. In the light of continuing pressure and stress, the occasional lip service paid to moderation was meaningless. Starvation and poisoning were not excesses, but measures taken to stay within the norm (Authority Quotes)
... there are moments in which the teacher, as the authority talks to the learners, says what must be done, establishes limits without which the very freedom of learners is lost in lawlessness, but these moments, in accordance with the political options of the educator, are alternated with others in which the educator speaks with the learner (Authority Quotes)
No one can learn tolerance in a climate of irresponsibility, which does not produce democracy. The act of tolerating requires a climate in which limits may be established, in which there are principles to be respected. That is why tolerance is not coexistence with the intolerable. Under an authoritarian regime, in which authority is abused, or a permissive one, in which freedom is not limited, one can hardly learn tolerance. Tolerance requires respect, discipline, and ethics (Authority Quotes)
Time and time again does the pride of man influence his very own fall. While denying it, one gradually starts to believe that he is the authority, or that he possesses great moral dominion over others, yet it is spiritually unwarranted. By that point he loses steam; in result, he falsely begins trying to prove that unwarranted dominion by seizing the role of a condemner (Authority Quotes)
Contrary to what we, the people, have been told, we are the power; we have supreme authority because we are the masses and true power always resides with the masses, never with the global elite who, by their very nature, have always been a vulnerable minority and will always continue to be...As long as the masses realize that, of course (Authority Quotes)
I started with the belief that every person who came to the laboratory was free to accept or to reject the dictates of authority. This view sustains a conception of human dignity insofar as it sees in each man a capacity for choosing his own behavior. And as it turned out, many subjects did, indeed, choose to reject the experimenter’s commands, providing a powerful affirmation of human ideals (Authority Quotes)
Each individual possesses a conscience which to a greater or lesser degree serves to restrain the unimpeded flow of impulses destructive to others. But when he merges his person into an organizational structure, a new creature replaces autonomous man, unhindered by the limitations of individual morality, freed of humane inhibition, mindful only of the sanctions of authority (Authority Quotes)
Authority that is not confirmed by true reason seems weak. Whereas true reason does not need to be confirmed by any authority (Authority Quotes)
If it be admitted that a man, possessing absolute power, may misuse that power by wronging his adversaries, why should a majority not be liable to the same reproach? Men are not apt to change their character by agglomeration; nor does their patience in the presence of obstacles increase with the consciousness of their strength. And for these reasons I can never willingly invest any number of my fellow creatures with that unlimited authority which I should refuse to any one of them (Authority Quotes)
There should be somewhere upon earth a place that no nation could claim as its sole property, a place where all human beings of good will, sincere in their aspiration, could live freely as citizens of the world, obeying one single authority, that of the supreme truth (Authority Quotes)
I beg you, reject antiquity, tradition, faith, and authority! Let us begin anew by doubting everything we assume has been proven! (Authority Quotes)
The people are hungry: It is because those in authority eat up too much in taxes (Authority Quotes)
Authority: The skill of getting people to willingly do your will, because of your personal influence (Authority Quotes)
There is great joy in leading with authority, which is serving others by meeting their legitimate needs (Authority Quotes)
If there’s anything mean in a feller, a litter authority will bring it out (Authority Quotes)
The search for moral guidance which shall not depend upon external authority has invariably ended in the acknowledgment of some new authority (Authority Quotes)
I hold it a blasphemy to say that a man ought not to fight against authority: there is no great religion and no great freedom that has not done it, in the beginning (Authority Quotes)
Power on the one side, fear on the other, are always the buttresses on which irrational authority is built (Authority Quotes)
The man who submits to violence is debased by his compliance; but when he submits to that right of authority which he acknowledges in a fellow creature, he rises in some measure above the person who give the command (Authority Quotes)
All progress in knowledge takes place through the correction of that which has been received on authority (Authority Quotes)
If you make me your authority, you harm yourself because you will not see things for yourself, and you harm me too because you refuse to see me as I am (Authority Quotes)
Sincere thought, real free thought, ready, in the name of superhuman authority or of humble common sense, to question the basis of what is officially taught and generally accepted, is less and less likely to thrive. It is, we repeat, by far easier to enslave a literate people than an illiterate one, strange as this may seem at first sight. And the enslavement is more likely to be lasting (Authority Quotes)
The only people I have ever seen paint successfully, consistently, with great authority, unselfconsciously and without fear of failing were about four years old (Authority Quotes)
