LifeLessonsForAll.com: I think saying "corrupt people abuse their power" is pretty much the same as saying "power corrupts". Because people have power, they tend to believe they can get away with anything and become corrupt. What do you think?
"Power does not corrupt people; rather corrupt people abuse their power. Power does not do things; people who have power do things. And whether the power is used properly or corruptly is up to the person.....Mothers have great power over their children, and teachers have power over their students. Does the power corrupt them?"
