Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are
Italian diplomat, politician, historian, philosopher, humanist, writer, playwright and poet of the Renaissance period.
He who wishes to be obeyed must know how to command
Therefore, it is necessary to be a fox to discover the snares and a lion to terrify the wolves
Appear as you may wish to be
Whosoever desires constant success must change his conduct with the times
Where the willingness is great, the difficulties cannot be great
It is not titles that honour men, but men that honour titles
We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without
One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors
Books serve to show a man that those original thoughts of his aren’t very new at all
In every walk with Nature one receives far more than he seeks
Those who know, do. Those that understand, teach
While there's life, there's hope
