“One of the great problems of history is that theconcepts of love and power have usually beencontrasted as opposites—polar opposites—so thatlove is identified with a resignation of power, andpower with a denial of love…. What is needed isa realization that power without love is recklessand abusive, and that love without power issentimental and anemic.
