|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Many have dreamed up republics and principalities that have never in truth been known to exist; the gulf between how one should live and how one does live is so wide that that a man who neglects what is actually done for what should be done learns the way to self-destruction rather than self-preservation. | Machiavelli | Niccolo | The Prince |
| 2 | From this we learn that a wise prince sees to it that never, in order to attack someone, does he become the ally of a prince more powerful than himself, except when necessity forces him, as I said above. If you win, you are the powerful king's prisoner, | Machiavelli | The Prince | |
| 3 | Wisdom consists in being able to distinguish among dangers and make a choice of the least harmful. | Machiavelli | Niccolo | The Prince |
