False Security and "The Will to Power"

With an eye on the future...

When it comes to the exercise of "the will to power,"*** it would be prudent to remember that hungry carnivores are always the most motivated and resourceful of hunters - especially when their prey have been lulled into a false sense of security and contentment associated with large numbers and full stomachs. 

Remarkably, there are certain kinds of carnivores for whom hunger is just an excuse, because their impetus is really about the intoxicated feeling that comes with the uninhibited use of power. 

*** Friedrich Nietzsche believed the basic drive in humankind was "the will to power."
