@theromanmind_: Machiavelli (1469–1527) People often love you more when you can provide for them. Money, protection, stability, and power can make people stay close—but never confuse dependence with loyalty. When what you provide disappears, you may discover who truly valued you and who only valued what you gave them. #Machiavelli #HumanNature #Mindset #Power #CapCut
