尼可罗·马基雅维利《君主论》· The Prince · 成长 · 领导
But the difficulties occur in a new principality. And firstly, if it be not entirely new, but is, as it were, a member of a state which, taken collectively, may be called composite, the changes arise chiefly from an inherent difficulty which there is in all new principalities; for men change their rulers willingly, hoping to better themselves, and this hope induces them to take up arms against him who rules: wherein they are deceived, because they afterwards find by experience they have gone from bad to worse. This follows also on another natural and common necessity, which always causes a new prince to burden those who have submitted to him with his soldiery and with infinite other hardships which he must put upon his new acquisition.

白话
困难出现在新君主国。首先，如果它不是全新的，而是像混合君主国的一部分，那么变革主要源于新君主国固有的困难；因为人们总是愿意更换统治者，希望改善处境，这种希望促使他们拿起武器反对旧统治者，但结果往往事与愿违，他们发现处境更糟。此外，新君主必然用军队和无数其他负担压榨新臣民，这也是自然且常见的必然性。
