Niccolo Machiavelli Quotes
The Romans, Accordingly, Admiring The Prudence And Virtues Of Numa, Assented To All The Measures Which He Recommended. This, However, Is To Be Said, That The Circumstance Of These Times Being Deeply Tinctured With Religious Feeling, And Of The Men With Whom He Had To Deal Being Rude And Ignorant, Gave Numa Better Facility To Carry Out His Plans, As Enabling Him To Mould His Subjects Readily To Any New Impression. And, Doubtless, He Who Should Seek At The Present Day To Form A New Commonwealth, Would Find The Task Easier Among A Race Of Simple Mountaineers, Than Among The Dwellers In Cities Where Society Is Corrupt; As The Sculptor Can More Easily Carve A Fair Statue From A Rough Block, Than From The Block Which Has Been Badly Shaped Out By Another.
