You've made a good point about   Written by Janey (10/9/2010 2:10 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Power with or Power over . . ., penned by KatharineW
Are you new?

the power over people as shown in the emperor example. I should have stopped after Schindler's first line:

Or as Schindler explains it:
"Oskar Schindler: Power is when we have every justification to kill, and we don't.

I think there's power in her nature, her meekness. She doesn't seethe with resentment or become bitter. That requires an internal power. Or maybe that develops internal power. She has persevered in the face of horrible circumstances and even in spite of her own obvious weaknesses.

Hope this clarifies...my brain isn't what it used to be. =8O
