Words are living things. They have personality, point of view, agenda.
Power resides where men believe it resides. lt’s a trick, a shadow on the wall. And a very small man can cast a very large shadow.
Know your strengths, use them wisely, and one man can be worth 10,000.
Power is a matter of influence.
My powers of influence are so meager in this sublunar world of ours, I try to limit the people I can disappoint. And I make sure to know the difference between my obligations and somebody else’s.
Art is simply politics’ sweeter tongue.
Without money, we lose influence. Without influence, we lose control.
The part you guys never seem to realize is that you don’t have the power anymore. The news division is held up by my show. And the only thing keeping us afloat is me. Because guess what? America loves me. And therefore, I own America.
Someone who inspires priests and wh**es is worth taking seriously.
If you ever wonder what it takes to become an influencer, specifically a body-positive Insta-celeb, be shameless.
If I do not please, I cannot seduce. If I do not seduce, I cannot influence. If I do not influence, I repent.
I’ve done my best to be what you made me.[to Morpheus]
