Nothing is stable in the realm of power, and even closest of friends can be transformed into the worst of enemies.
Robert GreeneIf you want to be powerful in life you have to enjoy the process. You have to get pleasure out of making the thing that you're making. There has to be that kind of purpose behind it. If your purpose is simply gaining power, if that becomes your end in life then you end up sort of destroying yourself because you lose the sense of detachment that's very necessary.
Robert GreeneIf you're really driven and you want something deep, hard enough in life, you're going to get it.
