尼可罗·马基雅维利:君主论·摘录 31

尼可罗·马基雅维利《君主论》· The Prince · 领导 · 人性 · 行动

Therefore, one who becomes a prince through the favour of the people ought to keep them friendly, and this he can easily do seeing they only ask not to be oppressed by him. But one who, in opposition to the people, becomes a prince by the favour of the nobles, ought, above everything, to seek to win the people over to himself, and this he may easily do if he takes them under his protection. Because men, when they receive good from him of whom they were expecting evil, are bound more closely to their benefactor; thus the people quickly become more devoted to him than if he had been raised to the principality by their favours; and the prince can win their affections in many ways, but as these vary according to the circumstances one cannot give fixed rules, so I omit them; but, I repeat, it is necessary for a prince to have the people friendly, otherwise he has no security in adversity.

白话

靠人民支持当上君主的人,应保持人民友好,这很容易,因为他们只求不被压迫。相反,靠贵族支持、违背人民意愿上位的人,首要任务是争取人民,只要保护他们就能做到。因为人从原本提防的人那里得到好处,会更感激他,人民会更快地效忠他。君主可用多种方式赢得民心,具体因情况而异,无法定死规则。但必须牢记:君主必须与人民友好,否则在逆境中就没有安全。
