Niccolo Machiavelli (Italian - Writer)
May 3, 1469 - June 21, 1527
The wise man does at once what the fool does finally.
Never was anything great achieved without danger.
There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others.
Men should be either treated generously or destroyed, because they take revenge for slight injuries - for heavy ones they cannot.
There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.
It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both.
If an injury has to be done to a man it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared.
Politics have no relation to morals.
It is double pleasure to deceive the deceiver.
It is not titles that honor men, but men that honor titles.
