Use human means as though divine ones did not exist, and usedivine means as though there were no human ones. So wrote theJesuit scholar Baltazar Gracian some 300 years ago, in a book thatwill be compared to Sun Tzu's The Art of War and Machiavelli's ThePrince. A new translation of long lost wisdom on livingsuccessfully yet responsibly.

The introduction of this book reads, "Beauty, like every otherquality — courage, fear, ugliness, trust, truth, wisdom — is a partof us and apart from us, inside us and outside us, personal andimpersonal.
