spencekat: If you are to be pragmatic about nature and it's ways, you would support Robert Greene entirely. Only what is not favourable to you as a person is bad It's no one else's business. In nature, there's scarcely any good or evil. Any favourable situation is good and the opposite for unfathomable situations. But at the end, as an observer, we will be the ones to quantify each situation and separate or even label them as either good or bad. There's a saying.... One man's food is another man's poison. What you call good could be called bad by someone else and vis-a-vis. Dig? But no mind Greene, he's a hard pragmatic bastard. And I love him for that, wish I could be as hard as him. spencekat: If you are to be pragmatic about nature and it's ways, you would support Robert Greene entirely.

LAW 36: Disdain Things you cannot have ~ Ignoring them is the best Revenge "By acknowledging a petty problem you give it existence and credibility; The less interest you reveal, the more superior you become." LAW 17: Keep Others in Suspended Terror ~ Cultivate an Air of Unpredictability "Humans are creatures of habit with an insatiable need to see familiarity in other people’s actions. Your predictability gives them a sense of control. Turn the tables: Be deliberately unpredictable. Behavior that seems to have no consistency or purpose will keep them off-balance, and they will wear themselves out trying to explain your moves. Taken to an extreme, this strategy can intimidate and terrorize." 8 Likes 3 Shares |

I haven't read the book, and never will. Can't devote my time and resources to a teaching that is antithetical to what the Bible stands for. God is the ultimate giver of power, he installs and removes kings, and all the laws of power I need are in the Bible. Power is the least of my cravings and I actually don't envy those who have read the book pali to pali , infact I have remorse for them cos a good number of them have nothing to show for it, except that it appeals to and tickles their fantasy |

FortifiedCity: Sadly most people with political and economic power naturally have many of these traits. Very vile set of people. A certain "shithole" presido comes to mind. That is why they are mostly self-obsessed people. Egomaniacs with a thin veneer of generosity, honesty and kindness. 1 Like |
