Might is Right

Yes, the book is illuminating in many aspects and still pertinent to this day (in parts), but it was written 130 years ago. Some of the author's views on race and women are horribly outdated (a little uncomfortable to read) and not supported by science. Not his fault, like; he was a man of his times.

Nowadays, if people behaved in the ways he suggests, they'd end up in prison, beaten to a pulp or murdered. The only ones who tend to get away with Might is Right in the long run are those who are already rich/powerful and come from a well-estabished background (Royalty, Rothschilds, etc.).

I agree with love too. It's a necessary ingredient in a fulfilled life. Without it, everything's meaningless.

Happy days :D
