Cruelty
I have seen the evil that power brings. The stickler for rules becomes a fascist dictator; the literate teacher becomes a master of the poisonous phrase. Power is a force multiplier. It makes a normal response into a disproportionate one. If that response is a charitable one, then the blessings are great; if that response is loveless, then hatred is the fruit.

Trust me. I have drunk from that well for almost 23 years.
