The lack of thinking is what is destroying this planet. I don't think anyone can 'over-think'.

Machiavelli's "The Prince", was WAY too pragmatic for me. It's got a lot of neo-con dogmatics and extremism. I also think it is an obsolete manuscript from contextually extinct political circumstances.

I own two copies of "The Art of War", it's an incredible book. Sun Tzu is a genius.


Wow Graeme your fucking smart.

Never read either of those though.

Well i'd sound retarded describing a book i don't like.

Example: I didn't like the book lord of the flies cause all the little kids bitched too much and it got annoying but i liked it when they started dying.

Kk, I am planning on writing a large persuasive essay based on how a authority figures should rule.

The Prince goes along with it very strongly in my opinion, and The Art of War was recommended to me.

Do you know of any other books/sources that would go along with it?

Haha, there are many books about the crazy rulers of Rome. The most notable, imo, was the one that burnt down the city :P
