Si un príncipe quiere conservar el estado a menudo se ve obligado a no ser bueno; cuando la mayoría, ya sea pueblo, soldados o grandes, de la que piensas tener necesidad para mantenerte, está corrompida, te conviene seguir su humor para satisfacerla, y entonces las buenas acciones serán tu perdición.

un príncipe debe inquietarse poco d las conspiraciones cuando el pueblo le tenga buena voluntad; pero, cuando le sea contrario y le tenga odio, debe temerlo todo y a todos. Los estados bien ordenados y los príncipes sabios han cuidado siempre muy diligentemente d no descontentar a los grandes y d satisfacer al pueblo y tenerlo contento; ésta es una d las cosas más importantes q ha de tener en cuenta un príncipe.

el príncipe debe hacerse temer de modo que, si no se granjea el amor, evite el odio; (...) esto lo conseguirá siempre, si se abstiene de robar (...); y cuando le sea indispensable derramar la sangre de alguien (...) exista justificación conveniente y causa manifiesta; pero, sobre todo, absténgase de tomar los bienes ajenos: porque los hombres olvidan más pronto la muerte del padre que la pérdida del patrimonio.

las amistades que se adquieren con el dinero y no con la grandeza y la nobleza de alma, no son de provecho alguno en los tiempos difíciles, por más bien merecidas que estén.

Los seres humanos eran incapaces de pensar por sí mismos: ésa era una de las "verdades preciadas" que había aprendido. Y quien no pensaba, no sabía escuchar a los demás.

Time is like mercury: scatter it and it will grow together again, it will again find its own integrity and indeterminacy. People tamed it, shackled it into pocket-watches and stop-watches —and for those that hold time on a chain, time flows evenly. But try to free it and you will see: it flows differently for different people(...)

Morir es doloroso. Duele más de lo que crees. Y te sientes inmensamente solo. Tan solo que parece imposible que alguien pueda sentir tanta soledad. Recuérdalo. Pero, ¿sabes?, al fin y al cabo, lo que no muere no puede resucitar.

Walter had never liked cats. They'd seemed to him the sociopaths of the pet world, a species domesticated as an evil necessary for the control of rodents and subsequently fetishized the way unhappy countries feishize their militaries, saluting the uniforms of killers as cat owners stroke their animals' lovely fur and forgive their claws and fangs.

I guess my life hasn't been happy, or easy, or exactly what I wanted. At a certain point, I just have to try not to think too much about certain things, or else they'll break my heart.

the difference is that birds are only killing because they have to eat. They're not doing it angrily, they're not doing it wantonly. It's not neurotic. To me that's what makes nature peaceful. Things live or they don't live, but it's not all poisoned with resentment and neurosis and ideology. It's a relief from my own neurotic anger.

The personality susceptible to the dream of limitless freedom is a personality also prone, should the dream ever sour, to misanthropy and rage.

He became another data point in the American experiment of self-government, an experiment statistically skewed from the outset, because it wasn't the people with the sociable genes who fled the Old World for the new continent; it was the people who didn't get along well with others.

This wasn't the person he'd thought he was, or would have chosen to be if he'd been free to choose, but there was something comforting and liberating about being an actual someone, rather than a collection of contradictory potential someones.

Insecurity, suspicion, jealousy, possessiveness, paranoia —the unseemly kind of stuff that so annoyed those friends of his who'd had, however briefly, girlfriends— were foreign to her. Whether she genuinely lacked these feelings, or whether some powerful animal intelligence led her to suppress them, he could never determine.

The reason free market in Europe is tempered by socialism is that they're not so hung up on personal liberties there. They also have the lower population growth rates, despite comparable income levels. The Europeans are all-around more rational, basically.
