Quote by Ron Todd

You don't have power if you surrender all your principles -- you have office.

You don't have power if you surrender all your principles --

Summary

This quote emphasizes that one's power should not come at the cost of sacrificing their personal principles and values. It suggests that blindly conforming or compromising on one's beliefs in pursuit of authority or status does not make an individual truly powerful, but merely grants them a position or title. True power lies in staying true to one's principles, remaining steadfast in one's convictions, and not compromising on one's moral compass to attain or maintain a certain position of authority or position in society.
