All warfare is based on deception. There is no place where espionage is not used. Offer the enemy bait to lure him.
Sun TzuRely not on the likelihood of the enemy's not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him
Sun TzuThere is nothing more difficult than tactical maneuvering. The difficult consists in turning the devious into the direct, and misfortune into gain. Thus, to take a long and circuitous route after enticing the enemy out of the way, and though starting after him to contrive to reach the goal before him, shows knowledge of the artifice of deviation.
