Most overlook Machiavelli's heart. But he says below that certain political necessities are not only "cruel" but "miserable". We should "flee" rule if we can. But if we can not, we must be effectual, not pious. Conversation feat (ckwise from top left @henry @naomiii @kugusha.eth @tldr @chandresh.eth)

We are sometimes permitted to speak what is beautiful over what is true. This may be what Platoโ€™s Socrates was getting at in his (in)famous passage from Book III of the Republic about the importance of telling a โ€œnoble lieโ€ to all members of a city (ie, rulers and citizens).
