Text Quotes
We have the authority to take action,... But responsible authority means not only being able to take action, but knowing when and how to take that action  (Authority Quotes) All I’m being offered now are parts that are authority figures. I’ve done that. And that’s not what I want. I want something different  (Authority Quotes) A man made for public life and authority never takes account of personalities; he only takes account of things, of their weight and their conseqences  (Authority Quotes) Leadership means that a group, large or small, is willing to entrust authority to a person who has shown judgment, wisdom, personal appeal, and proven competence  (Authority Quotes) Government is not infallible. Government is only an executive control, a centralized authority for the purpose of expressing the will of the people; before you have a government you must have the people. Without the people there can be no government. The government must be, therefore, an expression of the will of the people  (Authority Quotes) In my opinion, it helps enormously to know why something is true, rather than being told it is true, for why should you believe me? Never believe anything on the authority of a single person but seek confirmation - and reason is the best confirmation  (Authority Quotes) When comprehending how different people truly are, you also comprehend the absolute necessity of some divine authority  (Authority Quotes) The gods gave me a father who ruled over me and rid me of any trace of arrogance and showed me that one can live in a palace without bodyguards, extravagant attire, chandeliers, statues, and other luxuries. He taught me that it is possible to live instead pretty much in the manner of a private citizen without losing any of the dignity and authority a ruler must possess to discharge his imperial duties effectively  (Authority Quotes) When all authority of every kind is put aside, denied, then you can find out for yourself  (Authority Quotes) They, who would combat general authority with particular opinion, must first establish themselves a reputation of understanding better than other men  (Authority Quotes) Do what is right, and the reward will be immediate and multitudinous. Think what is right, and your authority will grow  (Authority Quotes) I’ve been writing about growing old for some time, really from the beginning of my career. It’s something I’m apparently hung up about and now that I am old, hopefully I speak about it with some authority  (Authority Quotes) It is far more rational to suppose that the courts were designed to be an intermediate body between the people and the legislature, in order, among other things, to keep the latter within the limits assigned to their authority  (Authority Quotes) He who in reasoning cites authority is making use of his memory rather than of his intellect  (Authority Quotes) Ten thousand things there are which we believe merely upon the authority or credit of those who have spoken or written them  (Authority Quotes) Whenever we accept an idea as authority instead of as instrument, an idol is set up. We worship the plough, and not the fruit  (Authority Quotes) Laws are maintained in credit, not because they are essentially just, but because they are laws. It is the mystical foundation of their authority; they have none other  (Authority Quotes) Ballet is the body rising. Ballet is ceremonial and hieratic. Its disdain for the commonplace material world is the source of its authority and glamour  (Authority Quotes) The difficulty that contestation must be done in the name of an authority is resolved this: I contest in the name of contestation what experience itself is  (Authority Quotes) Obedience is the psychological mechanism that links individual action to political purpose. It is the dispositional cement that binds men to systems of authority  (Authority Quotes) Some system of authority is a requirement of all communal living, and it is only the man dwelling in isolation who is not forced to respond, through defiance or submission, to the commands of others  (Authority Quotes) That all power of suspending laws, or the execution of laws, by any authority, without consent of the representatives of the people, is injurious to their rights, and ought not to be exercised  (Authority Quotes) You cannot give the vice president the authority to declassify specific information and then turn around and say he can just give carte blanche to an assistant of his to declassify whatever he wants  (Authority Quotes) Giving orders you know won’t be obeyed is one of the best ways I know to destroy your own authority  (Authority Quotes) Organisation, far from creating authority, is the only cure for it and the only means whereby each of us will get used to taking an active and conscious part in collective work, and cease being passive instruments in the hands of leaders  (Authority Quotes) Listen to authority figures because of their position, but only believe them if they can explain why  (Authority Quotes) Ladies, if you want a happy marriage, then do whatever your husband tells you without questioning his authority  (Authority Quotes) Justice makes the life of such as are in prosperity, power and authority the life of a God, and injustice turns it to that of a beast  (Authority Quotes) In fact, it is because the nature of prayer is so personal and can have such a powerful effect on a community that the government may not use its authority to try to influence an individual’s decision whether and when to pray  (Authority Quotes) Theologians are all alike, of whatever religion or country they may be; their aim is always to wield despotic authority over men’s consciences; they therefore persecute all of us who have the temerity to tell the truth  (Authority Quotes)
