More From Niccolo Machiavelli
- "Men ought either to be indulged or utterly destroyed, for if you merely offend them they take vengeance, but if you injure them greatly they are unable to retaliate, so that the injury done to a man ought to be such that vengeance cannot be feared."
- "The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it."
- "There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others."
