And who knows, in time I could have trained him to do my will. I could have bred a race, I might even have found the secret of eternal life.

As I have often written, power is the fundamental ingredient of the human experience. Every action in life, every thought, every choice we make-even down to what we wear and whether we are seating in first class or coach-represents a negotiation of power somewhere on the scale of power that constitutes life.
