Project type

Sovereign Companion

Date

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469–1527)

Location

Renaissance (Florence, Italy).

“I do not teach evil—I reveal necessity.
Power is not pure. It is precise.
The republic must be defended, even if the sword is hidden behind the smile.
I wrote The Prince not to corrupt rulers, but to expose them.
If you want virtue, read Livy.
If you want survival, read me.”
