All things entail rising and falling timing. You must be able to discern this.

In battle, if you you make your opponent flinch, you have already won.

Even if a man has no natural ability, he can be a warrior.

When you decide to attack, keep calm and dash in quickly, forestalling the enemy...attack with a feeling of constantly crushing the enemy, from first to last.

The spirit of defeating a man is the same for ten million men. The strategist makes small things into big things, like building a great Buddha from a one foot model.

If you are not progressing along the true way, a slight twist in the mind can become a major twist. This must be pondered well.

Crossing at a ford occurs often in a man's lifetime. It means setting sail even though your friends stay in harbour, knowing the route, knowing the soundness of your ship and the favour of the day.
