Carry on men!

I currently use the pages of 'The 48 Laws of Power' as kindling to light my BBQs on warm summer and spring days. That is one of the worst books I have ever come accross, and anyone looking to implement its teachings into their everyday lives has no bearing on humnity, nor the capacity to cultivate healthy human relationships.

Sun Tzu's The art of War was a good read however, as it placed more emphasis on tactics and outsmarting the enemy on the battlefield. It too seems to have a tinge of amorality, but in a far more limited scope than is suggested by the aforementioned book.


-by all means, do not read the 48 Laws of Power; it is everything wrong with humans in this world, summerized and condensed into one book, and then passed off as advice to be applied in an everyday game of survival. We aren't base animals -well, we are but we also have what animals don't, a higher order of thinking, which contrary to what some may think, is not a dillusion or guise used to mask our true carnal natures; if we were, then all we would be doing is murdering each other for food all day- especially in this economy.
