The secret of success in battle lies often not so much in the use of one's own strength but in the exploitation of the other side's weaknesses.

You would always beat me; not so much because you are a better fighter as because you will not accept defeat.

There are times when thinking about something is the worst possible policy.

There is always something to lose. But maybe more to gain.

And though I remember her name I cannot recall her face. All things pass.

What tricks the mind is what the mind is glad to be tricked by.

What men do matters more than what they know.
