Play the perfect courtier to gain favor and influence within a court from "summary" of The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene

To climb the heights of power, you must master the art of courtship. The court is a delicate ecosystem, where power dynamics fluctuate like the tides. To navigate this treacherous terrain, you must become the consummate courtier - a master of flattery, charm, and deception. Your goal is simple: to gain favor and influence within the court. To achieve this, you must play the part to perfection. You must flatter those in power, while subtly undermining your rivals. You must be attentive and deferential, always ready to serve the needs of those above you. But beware - the court is a place of intrigue and betrayal. Your allies today may be your enemies tomorrow. To survive in this cutthroat world, you must be ever vigilant, always watching for signs of treachery and deceit. In the court, appearances are everything. You must project an image of loyalty and devotion, even as you plot and scheme behind the scenes. Your true feelings and intentions must remain hidden, known only to yourself. To succeed in the court, you must be a master of manipulation. You must know when to flatter and when to criticize, when to speak and when to remain silent. Your every word and action must be calculated to further your own ambitions. In the court, power is everything. Those who wield it with skill and cunning will rise to the top, while those who falter will be cast aside. To play the perfect courtier is to dance on the razor's edge of power, always one false step away from ruin. So heed these words well, aspiring courtier. The path to power is fraught with danger and deceit. Only those who master the art of courtship will survive to claim their rightful place among the elite.
