ALLUSIONS (2)
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Which is a problem. If you're powerless. Drago Museveni, "Manifesto" CY 8433. The "Absolute power corrupts absolutely." part of this quote comes from the original quotation "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men." It was original in a letter written by Lord Acton to Bishop Mandell Creighton in 1887.
-
The Prince:
The title of this episode is a reference to Niccolo Machiavelli's book The Prince. The views expressed in The Prince are often regarded as the methods an aspiring prince can use to gain power, and/or an existing prince can use to establish and maintain his reign.
