Wonderful, thank you very much. I love Discourses - it is some of most insightful and inspiring writings ever. I feel sad for people who just read The Prince and then dedicated their career towards analyzing Machiavelli's motives and tarnishing the name of Nicollo, while in reality making fools of themselves. For the record: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2095855 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2095855 Also as a shameless plug, I have realized that The Prince is a tongue in cheek piece even before reading The Discourses.
