“If you wait by the river long enough, the bodies of your enemies will float by.”

Anger may in time change to gladness; vexation may be succeeded by content. But a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be brought back to life.

The opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.

Do not swallow bait offered by the enemy. Do not interfere with an army that is returning home.

He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight

To know your Enemy, you must become your Enemy.

Begin by seizing something which your opponent holds dear; then he will be amenable to your will.

Thus the expert in battle moves the enemy, and is not moved by him.

He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.

Foreknowledge cannot be gotten from ghosts and spirits, cannot be had by analogy, cannot be found out by calculation. It must be obtained from people, people who know the conditions of the enemy.

Convince your enemy that he will gain very little by attacking you; this will diminish his enthusiasm.

In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.

When one treats people with benevolence, justice, and righteoousness, and reposes confidence in them, the army will be united in mind and all will be happy to serve their leaders.

Water shapes its course according to the nature of the ground over which it flows; the soldier works out his victory in relation to the foe whom he is facing.

Rewards for good service should not be deferred a single day.

Be where your enemy is not.

Treat your men as you would your own beloved sons. And they will follow you into the deepest valley.

Go back and take care of yourself. Your body needs you, your feelings need you, your perceptions need you. Your suffering needs you to acknowledge it. Go home and be there for all these things.

I drink a lot of coconut water. It balances out all the other toxic stuff I put into my body.

Regarding the fitness craze: America has lost its soul; now it’s trying to save its body.

It is more necessary for the soul to be cured than the body; for it is better to die than to live badly.

Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing out, I smile. Dwelling in the present moment I know this is the only moment.

Kisses all on her body, she tells me live in the moment.

It is in your act that you exist, not in your body. Your act is yourself, and there is no other you.

Sometimes we make love with our eyes. Sometimes we make love with our hands. Sometimes we make love with our bodies. Always we make love with our hearts.
