Therefore - Machiavelli

This quote was added by lynxiebewb
Therefore it is unnecessary for a prince to have all the good qualities I have enumerated, but is very necessary to appear to have them. And I shall dare to say this also, that to have them and always observe them is injurious, and that to appear to have them is useful; to appear merciful, faithful, humane, religious, upright, and to be so, but with a mind so framed that should you require not to be so, you may be able and know how to change to the opposite.
