Posted by cortelyounext on Mon Oct 13 08:51:10 2025, in response to "The Prince ", by Niccolo Machiavelli, posted by LuchAAA on Mon Oct 13 00:36:27 2025. I just finished reading The Prince.I have that book but have not yet read it. I often obtain works of classic literature like that not to read... not to read, but instead to impress. I'll throw books like that into my backpack and then prominently display them on my table at some indie coffee shop in Woodstock to attract attention of Progressive Democrats who present as either female or fluid. Needless to say, in those situations, I have already read a single-page summary using CliffsNotes or SparkNotes or, on rare occasions, Wikipedia in case someone approaches me having read the book and wants to discuss it. I just ordered On Life and Death from Oxford University Press by the ancient Roman politician, statesman, philosopher, administrator, and orator Cicero for no reason other than the design of the cover, a book I have not nor will I ever open much less read. My only concern is that it serves my purposes pursuits plans call it what you will. Time and circumstances will tell whether I am ultimately rewarded with an intimate and lasting relationship. Note: I will sometimes look at the pictures and read the captions so I can be honest and tell people I read the book. I could care or not care less one of those things what others may think of my motives, ulterior or otherwise.  |
