"It was pretty boring, but disturbing thing was how 'ordinary' these ideas seemed. Our times are completely in tune with the outlook of this historically-derided character..."
"This is the version I read from -- very good. The Prince, which is the most famous of Machiavelli's (though he wrote children's stories and plays!), makes most sense and is most meaningful when read along with The Discourses.
My favorite parts: The section on Fortuna (early, I think it's the 1st book) and the entire section on renewal/corruption (beginning of the 3rd book)."
"Interesting view into the mind of Machiavelli. In this book he discusses government on a scientific basis, discussing it and separating it from ethics... talking about it on its own terms. The Discourses is a treatise on ruling and retaining rule in a Republic political system. Those who would lead know learning can come from all sources."
