A Quote by Frederick Lenz
Does power bring happiness? Does it bring refinement? Does it bring humor? Does it bring a good-heartedness, or is it just cold? Power is never cold. Cold people may use power in cold ways.

It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light.
