The 48 Laws of Power - Robert Greene
Always make those above you feel comfortably superior
Never put too much trust in friends - learn how to use enemies
Conceal your intentions
Always say less than necessary
So much depends on reputation - guard it with your life
Court attention at all costs
Get others to do the work for you, but always take the credit. Never do for yourself what others can do for you
Make other people come to you, use bait if necessary
Win through actions never through argument
