“Power is the ability to do good things for others.”
Brooke Astor

“I am shackled to my belongings. A great many of them are absolute junk, but they have been with me through good times and bad. I feel that I cannot desert them. They are my friends and I cannot throw them out just because they have become outdated and shabby.”
Brooke Astor, Footprints: An Autobiography
