"It is not enough for a distinguished prince to know what goes on in his own time, but that he should even be informed about the most remote times. I considered that a knowledge of the great events of the past, digested by a mature and active mind, could strengthen his reasoning in important deliberations, that the example of the illustrious men and singular deeds of antiquity might possibly furnish some very useful insights in war and in peace, and that by contemplating the idea of so many brilliant virtues, a naturally great and magnanimous soul would be all the more inspired to practice them." -King Louis XIV  This commentary is based on ten selections from his memoirs and are categorized under the headings of foreign policy, nation building, and leadership. In order to maximize the utility of this practice one should try to relate main points to contemporary politics, affairs, and leaders.
