Niccolo Machiavelli

This man wrote a letter called "The Prince".

It was a revelation of sorts for those wishing to stay in power.

I had the fortunate opportunity to read this in 10th grade. I also read it many times after that. I think the brilliance of this book is the unsaid/unwritten portions of Machiavelli's philosophy.

I hope to write about it some day.
