Quotation #9170 from Poor Man's College:

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John F. Kennedy, Amherst College, Honoring Robert Frost
35th president of US 1961-1963 (1917 - 1963)
