Summary
This quote suggests that individuals who actively pursue or desire power are not deserving of it. It implies that deserving those in power are those who do not actively seek it but rather earn it through their actions, integrity, and commitment to serve others. It questions the motivations and character of those who relentlessly chase power, perhaps insinuating that their self-interest and disregard for others make them unworthy of wielding authority.
