阿克顿原话出自下面这段信(Dalberg-Acton,John Emerich Edward (1949),Essays on Freedom and Power,Boston:Beacon Press,p.364)：
"I cannot accept your canon that we are to judge Pope and King unlike other men with a favourable presumption that they did no wrong.If there is any presumption,it is the other way,against the holders of power,increasing as the power increases.Historic responsibility has to make up for the want of legal responsibility.All power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.Great men are almost always bad men,even when they exercise influence and not authority:still more when you superadd the tendency or certainty of corruption by full authority.There is no worse heresy than that the office sanctifies the holder of it."
但是通常引用的时候都是用的简化的更上口的形式：
Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.
