Niccolo Machiavelli

Niccolo Machiavelli

Niccolo Machiavelli

Make no small plans for they have no power to stir the soul.

Niccolo Machiavelli

It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to enslave a people that wants to remain free.
Niccolo Machiavelli

A prince ought to have two fears, one from within, on account of his subjects, the other from without, on account of external powers.
Niccolo Machiavelli

A sign of intelligence is an awareness of one’s own ignorance.
Niccolo Machiavelli

There is nothing more important than appearing to be religious.
Niccolo Machiavelli
