Niccolo Machiavelli

He who wishes to be obeyed must know how to command.

Hatred is gained as much by good works as by evil.

Whoever conquers a free town and does not demolish it commits a great error and may expect to be ruined himself.

Think of the earth as a living organism that is being attacked by billions of bacteria whose numbers double every forty years. Either the host dies, or the virus dies, or both die.

Everyone is born sincere and die deceivers.

The universities deceive when they say they have no agenda other than to open minds.
