From Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince.
"Men are so simple-minded and so controlled by their immediate needs that he who deceives will always find someone who will let himself be deceived." pg. 61
I feel the need to apologise to anyone that I have allowed to deceive me. You can be sure I won't let it happen again.

"I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves."

Thanks for the reminder, I needed it.
