Power is so addictive that people will cling to it even when their bodies are frail and their minds are no longer sharp.

There is a saying that goes along the lines of "those who crave power the most deserve it the least."

Raw power is to some, more addictive than the most powerful chemical drug.

“those who crave power the most deserve it the least.”

But those who crave power the most are the ones most likely to achieve it. It seems like a mathematical certainty.
