Know thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles, a thousand victories.
SUN TZUKnow thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles, a thousand victories.
SUN TZUTreat your men as you would your own beloved sons. And they will follow you into the deepest valley.
SUN TZUOne mark of a great soldier is that he fight on his own terms or fights not at all.
SUN TZUHe will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.
SUN TZUAppear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.
SUN TZUThere are roads which must not be followed, armies which must not be attacked, towns which must not be besieged, positions which must not be contested, commands of the sovereign which must not be obeyed.
SUN TZUEnergy may be likened to the bending of a crossbow; decision, to the releasing of a trigger.
SUN TZUBut a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be brought back to life.
SUN TZUTo know your Enemy, you must become your Enemy.
SUN TZUWhen the enemy is relaxed, make them toil. When full, starve them. When settled, make them move.
SUN TZUThere are not more than five primary colours, yet in combination they produce more hues than can ever been seen.
SUN TZUIf quick, I survive. If not quick, I am lost. This is “death.
SUN TZUWhen you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.
SUN TZUOne may know how to conquer without being able to do it.
SUN TZUBegin by seizing something which your opponent holds dear; then he will be amenable to your will.
SUN TZUThose skilled at making the enemy move do so by creating a situation to which he must conform; they entice him with something he is certain to take, and with lures of ostensible profit they await him in strength.
