What Does CASANOVA Mean When Saying "Honest CUNNING is a VIRTUE?"
Casanova said this on his famous quote :

"Cheating is a sin, but honest cunning is simply prudence. It is a virtue. To be sure, it has a likeness to roguery, but that cannot be helped. He who has not learned to practice it is a fool."

Being cunning..is negative. What is the virtue about it? Please en light me because I can't understand the meaning of his words.

In what way..being cunning can be considered prudence? Virtue?

What is "Honest Cunning" anyway??? is this a hidden message of some sort?

wtf

# craft: shrewdness as demonstrated by being skilled in deception
# crafty: marked by skill in deception; "cunning men often pass for wise"; "deep political machinations"; "a foxy scheme"; "a slick evasive answer"; "sly as a fox"; "tricky Dick"; "a wily old attorney"
# crafty artfulness (especially in deception)
# clever: showing inventiveness and skill; "a clever gadget"; "the cunning maneuvers leading to his success"; "an ingenious solution to the problem"

Oh and don't forget the guy was a freemason, and had sex with his prepubescent daughter, then married to a "brother".

Casanova isn't seducing for being loved. He's more like a twisted collector.
