The first method for estimating the intelligence of a ruler is to look at the men he has around him.
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 must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives
A man of virtue, judgment, and prudence speaks not until there is silence
Beware of speaking too much, for it increases mistakes and engenders boredom
Do not trust the character of one who cannot control his temper
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop
Live your life as an Exclamation rather than an Explanation
