Never attempt to win by force what can be won by deception.

Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are.

I'm not interested in preserving the status quo; I want to overthrow it.

There is no avoiding war, it can only be postponed to the advantage of your enemy.

…he who seeks to deceive will always find someone who will allow himself to be deceived.

Whosoever desires constant success must change his conduct with the times.

It is double pleasure to deceive the deceiver.

Men are so simple and so much inclined to obey immediate needs that a deceiver will never lack victims for his deceptions.

Trick question. Machiavelli was secretly a Romulan.

You have not experienced Machiavelli until you have read him in the original Romulan!

I didn't even realize they were separate quotes lol

I'm going M-dawg on all of them. The "guess the quote" equivalent of letting it all ride on red. Lol.

Man I love that you got Andreas Katsoulas (RIP) as Tomalak as the Romulan. What a fantastic actor he was. His role as G'Kar on Babylon 5 was a standout performance. But he was also such a great Romulan adversary!

It’s not him though, this is admiral jarok from the defector episode, I’m fairly certain
