Niccolò Machiavelli

Niccolò Machiavelli (c. 1469-1527)

“A prudent man should always follow in the path trodden by great men and imitate those who are most excellent, so that if he does not attain to their greatness, at any rate he will get some tinge of it.”

  • From The Prince (chapter 6) by Machiavelli, translated and printed by the Henry Regnery Company, 1948.
