Ruler Quotes

And love was creation’s source,creation’s ruler; but all love’s ways are strewn with blossoms and blood, blossoms and blood Picture Quote #1

We have reached the point where ignorance and neglect are the best we can hope for in a ruler Picture Quote #1

In order to become the master, a ruler must profess to be a servant of the people Picture Quote #1

I am a citizen of the most beautiful nation on earth, a nation whose laws are harsh yet simple, a nation that never cheats, which is immense and without borders, where life is lived in the present. In this limitless nation, this nation of wind, light, and peace, there is no other ruler besides the sea Picture Quote #1

For a modern ruler the laws of conservation and transformation of energy, when the vivifing stream takes its source, the ways it wends its course in nature, and how, under wisdom and knowledge, it may be intertwined with human destiny, instead of careering headlong to the ocean, are a study at least as pregnant with consequences to life as any lesson taught by the long unscientific history of man Picture Quote #1

There have been people.. ever since I’ve had any kind of position in the world.. who have accused me of being ruler of the world. I have to say that I think for the large part, I would have to decide to describe them as crack pots. It makes no sense whatsoever, and isn’t true, and won’t be true, and to raise it as a serious issue seems to me to be irresponsible Picture Quote #1

I plant daffodil bulbs about eight inches deep. As I mentioned before, I don’t use a ruler. As a married woman, I know perfectly well what six or eight inches looks like, so it’s easy to make a good estimate. This mental measurement makes planting time much more interesting than it might be otherwise Picture Quote #1

If the benevolent ruler stays in power long enough, he eventually concludes that power and wisdom are the same thing. And as he possesses power, he must possess wisdom. He becomes converted to the seductive thesis that election to public office endows the official with both power and wisdom. At this point, he begins to lose his ability to distinguish between what is morally right and what is politically expedient Picture Quote #1

It is dangerous for a ruler to trust others. He who trusts others can be manipulated by others Picture Quote #1

A kingdom always includes three fundamental components: a ruler, a realm of subjects who fall under his rule, and the rules or governances Picture Quote #1

The primary component upon which all else rests in a kingdom is the authority of the ruler. Without that, there is anarchy resulting in mess Picture Quote #1

There was no more dangerous a time in a nation’s life than the passing of a ruler when the succession was in doubt Picture Quote #1

The seventeenth century is everywhere a time in which the state’s power over everything individual increases, whether that power be in absolutist hands or may be considered the result of a contract, etc. People begin to dispute the sacred right of the individual ruler or authority without being aware that at the same time they are playing into the hands of a colossal state power Picture Quote #1

Power is not a matter of one dominant individual or institutions, but instead manifests in interconnected, contradictory sites where regimes of knowledge and practice circulate and take hold. This way of understanding the dispersion of power helps us realize that power is not simply about certain individuals being targeted for death or exclusion by a ruler, but instead about the creation of norms that distribute vulnerability and security Picture Quote #1

Man sometimes thinks he’s been elevated to be the controller, the ruler, but he’s not. He’s only part of the whole. Man’s job is not to exploit, but to oversee, to be a steward. Man has responsibility, not power Picture Quote #1

Egotism erects its center in itself; love places it out of itself in the axis of the universal whole. Love aims at unity, egotismat solitude. Love is the citizen ruler of a flourishing republic, egotism is a despot in a devastated creation Picture Quote #1

One cannot be arraigned for declaring a war, which every ruler has to do once in a while, but only for running a war badly Picture Quote #1

We are going to emancipate ourselves from mental slavery because whilst others might free the body, none but ourselves can free the mind. Mind is your only ruler, sovereign. The man who is not able to develop and use his mind is bound to be the slave of the other man who uses his mind Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Every ruler must remember three things. Firstly, that he rules man; secondly, that he rules according to law, and thirdly, that he does not rule for ever Picture Quote #1

The demerits of our own people bringh infamiy. Their disgrace is our own disgrace. That is why infamy os such people relly hurts. It is desifrable that the ruler or the administrator may work in a way that such disgraceful conduct may not occur Picture Quote #1

Sometimes coincidentally an unintelligent person can accomplish a task but that does not mean that he is a knower of means and device or is experienced. A ruler should be careful enough to designate other tasks to such persons Picture Quote #1

A prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a people who mean to be free Picture Quote #1

Know yourself and fit yourself to new fashions. For there is a new ruler among the gods Picture Quote #1

A multitude of rulers is not a good thing. Let there be one ruler, one king Picture Quote #1

Some, it seems to me, elect their rulers for their crookedness. But I think that a straight stick makes the best cane, and an upright man the best ruler Picture Quote #1

The heavy is the root of the light. The tranquil is the ruler of the hasty Picture Quote #1

I’m the ruler in my kingdom and my dark seat is hot. Step into my world and your heartbeat stop! Picture Quote #1

Freedom is not won by merely overthrowing a tyrannical ruler or an oppressive regime. That is usually only the prelude to a new tyranny, a new oppression Picture Quote #1
