"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely"
Lord Acton
who was a British historian and politician in the 19th century. He wrote these words in a letter to a friend in 1887, in which he was expressing his belief that even the most virtuous leaders are at risk of becoming corrupted if they are given unchecked power. The quote has since become a widely recognized warning about the dangers of concentrated power and the importance of accountability in leadership.
