There is only one principle of war and that's this. Hit the other fellow, as quickly as you can, as hard as you can, where it hurts him most, when he ain't lookin'.

You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war.

If you are far from the enemy, make him believe you are near.

The art of war teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy's not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him; not on the chance of his not attacking, but rather on the fact that we have made our position unassailable.

I have need of Rigaud. He is violent. I want him for carrying on war; and that war is necessary to me.

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

If you have an enemy, then learn and know your enemy, don't just be mad at him or her.

Life is a struggle, but not a warfare.

In the practical art of war, the best thing of all is to take the enemy's country whole and intact; to shatter and destroy it is not so good.

Fighting is easy to understand. You just hit the guy as hard as you can.
