“The main mistake, which Machiavelli was eager for his readers to avoid, was assuming that every situation was the same, and what worked in one context would automatically work in another. Machiavelli insisted that seeing things in this way was a recipe for absolute disaster and would only lead to rebellion and resistance.”

“The fundamental takeaway, the universal principle, states: any time you can rely on yourself to get something done, you have power over the situation whereas, any time you need to rely an outside entity to achieve your aims, you lose power, and, therefore, control.”

“This modern interpretation of Machiavelli’s landmark work is perhaps more useful for the modern reader than the original text. His dense ideas have been boiled down to their essence and presented in language that can be easily grasped by the modern mind.”
