The Power Of Thought

You are the architect of your own life: it is yours to make or to mar. By the power of thoughts you are building; are you building aright? The power of thought, as Emerson says, is a spirital power. It is the greatest power that man has at his disposal.

Robin Hood - Longman ClassicsRobin Hood - Longman Classics

The Robin Hood stories come from the time we call the Middle Ages, about the years 1000 to 1500. They are "folk" stories. That is, they were told by - or to - the people of the small farms and villages. Not the rich. Not the lords and ladies.
Folk heroes like Robin Hood help the common people when those with power are unjust. Those who hear the stories feel that the hero is "on our side

From Poverty To PowerFrom Poverty To Power

UNREST and pain and sorrow are the shadows of life. There is no heart in all the world that has not felt the sting of pain, no mind that has not been tossed upon the dark waters of trouble, no eye that has not wept the hot, blinding tears of unspeakable anguish. There is no house- hold where the Great Destroyers, disease and death, have not entered, severing heart from heart, and casting over all the dark pall of sorrow.

Language and Power in Blogs: Interaction, Disagreements and Agreements
2
 
 
Language and Power in Blogs: Interaction, Disagreements and AgreementsLanguage and Power in Blogs systematically analyses the discursive practices of bloggers and their readers in eight English-language personal/diary blogs. The main focus is thereby placed on ties between these practices and power. The book demonstrates that the exercise of power in this mode can be studied via the analysis of conversational control (turn-taking, speakership and topic control), coupled with research on agreements and disagreements. In this vein, it reveals that control of the floor is strongly tied not solely to rates of participation, but more strikingly to the types of contributions interlocutors make.
