Machiavelli. The great thinker of political ideology, was a maxim that always sat when asking what would happen in this situation or one in the near or distant future.
He knew, understood the story, although many people may not believe it is spiral. That is because history is made by men and is involved in their passions, dreams and fears, this should be repeated over time, as these things have not changed over time.
What were the dreams and passions of a roman or in the second century BC? Well the same as a man can have XXI century AD, be healthy, stable, made as a person, answer the existential questions, etc.
Yes, I understand that there may be variations and passions more or less, but the essence is always the same, because the soul of man is the same and this does not mutate, or mutates very slowly, almost imperceptibly.
Thus, Machiavelli, when he noted that would occur in certain situation said
"Anyone who wants to KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO EXAMINE WHAT HAPPENED: ALL THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD AT ANY TIME HAVE YOUR REPLY IN THE ANCIENT ... SINCE SUCH ACTIONS ARE TAKEN BY MEN WHO HAVE AND HAVE ALWAYS HAD THE SAME PASSION, WHICH NECESSARILY BE CAUSE THE SAME RESULTS "
Machiavelli. End
