 Teenagers quotes   Rebellion quotes   Abuse Of Power quotes   Control quotes   Making Decisions quotes   Authority quotes   Maturity quotes   Participation quotes   Life quotes   Advice quotes 
Suggest Revision: What causes adolescents to rebel is not the assertion of authority but the arbitrary use of power, with little explanation of the rules and no involvement in decision-making... Involving the adolescent in decisions doesn't mean that you are giving up your authority. It means acknowledging that the teenager is growing up and has the right to participate in decisions that affect his or her life.
 
 Julia Ward Howe quotes 
 Feminism quotes   Authority quotes   Injustice quotes   Religion quotes 
Suggest Revision: I think nothing is religion which puts one individual absolutely above others, and surely nothing is religion which puts one sex above another.

 Authority quotes   Youth quotes

 Senator John Kerry quotes 
 War quotes   Incompetence quotes   Congress quotes   Iraq quotes   Bush Administration quotes   Authority quotes 
Suggest Revision: The country and the Congress were misled into war. I regret that we were not given the truth; as I said more than a year ago, knowing what we know now, I would not have gone to war in Iraq. And knowing now the full measure of the Bush Administrations duplicity and incompetence, I doubt there are many members of Congress who would give them the authority they abused so badly. I know I would not.
 
 Derrick Jensen quotes 
 Education quotes   School quotes   Authority quotes 
Suggest Revision: Grades are a problem. On the most general level, they're an explicit acknowledgment that what you're doing is insufficiently interesting or rewarding for you to do it on your own. Nobody ever gave you a grade for learning how to play, how to ride a bicycle, or how to kiss. One of the best ways to destroy love for any of these activities would be through the use of grades, and the coercion and judgment they represent. Grades are a cudgel to bludgeon the unwilling into doing what they don't want to do, an important instrument in inculcating children into a lifelong subservience to whatever authority happens to be thrust over them.
 
 Stanley Milgram quotes 
 Authority quotes   Obedience quotes 
Suggest Revision: The key to the behavior of subjects lies not in pent-up anger or aggression, but in the nature of their relationship to authority. They have given themselves to the authority; they see themselves as instruments for the execution of his wishes; once so defined, they are unable to break free.
 
 Leonardo Da Vinci quotes 
 Memory quotes   Authority quotes 
Suggest Revision: Anyone who in discussion relies upon authority uses, not his understanding, but rather his memory.
 
 Thomas Hobbes quotes 
 Justice quotes   Authority quotes 
Suggest Revision: It is not wisdom but Authority that makes a law

Authority comes naturally to those who are wise. The world stands behind them and listens to them. But the intentions and cause should be noble and as Seneca says, “authority founded on injustice is never of long duration”. The intent is more important. Moral authority comes without seeking and is retained without effort. The authority is more strengthened by silence and not by uttering unnecessary retorts to each accusation. This clearly attempts to bring out the true face of the person. “If you wish to know what a man is, place him in authority” is a Yugoslavian proverb. A person who has the authority must be more cautious and dignified than others. Only then, the authority will be retained otherwise, he or she may have to fall into deeper chasms. The following is the collection of quotes on authority and read them to get a better perspective.
