Former FBI Director James Comey tweeted a quote Wednesday about power being a better gauge of a person’s character than adversity.
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. … Most people can bear adversity; but if you wish to know what a man really is give him power,” Comey tweeted, quoting Civil War-era politician Robert Ingersoll on President Lincoln.
