Thus, if armaments were curtailed without a secure peace and all countries disarmed proportionately, military security would have been in no way affected.
A war can perhaps be won single-handedly. But peace - lasting peace - cannot be secured without the support of all.
But the relationship of morality and power is a very subtle one. Because ultimately power without morality is no longer power.
America stood at the summit of power, emerging from the Cold War as an economic, cultural and military force without equal.
This House cannot function without an open, accountable, and independent ethics process; and the molestation of that process by the majority is an abuse of power that cannot stand.
Vision without power does bring moral elevation but cannot give a lasting culture.
For the first time in 15 years, Georgia this winter has its electric power guaranteed without deficit. This is a historic achievement.
By burning nuclear waste as fuel, we believe we can power the United States cleanly for hundreds of years without ever touching new resources.

Once every five hundred years or so, a summary statement about poetry comes along that we can't imagine ourselves living without.

The real issue is not talent as an independent element, but talent in relationship to will, desire, and persistence. Talent without these things vanishes and even modest talent with those characteristics grows.
Without a Prospero-Caliban relationship to balance the Prospero-Ariel one, 'The Tempest' loses much of its resonance.
Science fiction without the science just becomes, you know, sword and sorcery, basically stories about heroism and not much more.
As our expedition to New York seems likely to be attended with a very fatal Consequence, and ourselves haply censured for undertaking it without assurance of success.
