“The Tiny Wound.     It is small but painful and irritating. You try all sorts of medicaments, you com- plain, you scratch and pick at the scab. Doctors only make it worse, transforming the tiny wound into a grave matter. If only you had left the wound alone, letting time heal it and freeing yourself of worry.”
― Robert Greene, The 48 Laws of Power

“JUDGMENT Be wary of friends—they will betray you more quickly, for they are easily aroused to envy. They also become spoiled and tyrannical. But hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more to prove. In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies. If you have no enemies, find a way to make them.”
― Robert Greene, The 48 Laws of Power

“Never be distracted by people’s glamorous portraits of themselves and their lives; search and dig for what really imprisons them.”
― Robert Greene, The 48 Laws of Power

“If you lead the sucker down a familiar path, he won't catch on when you lead him into a trap.”
