Everyone keeps acting like I was some cautionary tale, but I was basically a startup with swords and better branding. by Cesare Borgia

History only remembers the bold because the cautious were too busy being forgettable.

I financed your whole personality and you still made every dinner feel like a hostile takeover.

Still wild that one efficient week in Romagna got me more legend than half of Italy got in a century.

To be fair, no one ever said you lacked vision. They said you lacked chill.

You were my favorite case study, not my favorite coworker. Huge difference.
