Power & Aggression

Whoever acquires power
Under the pretext of self-defense
Ends up using it for aggression
Under the pretext of self-defense.

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) in Beyond Good and Evil says:
A living thing seeks above all to discharge its strength.
Life itself is will to power; self-preservation is only
one of the indirect and most frequent results.
