All warfare is based on deception. There is no place where espionage is not used. Offer the enemy bait to lure him.
Sun TzuStrategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.
Sun TzuAll warfare is based on deception. Therefore, when capable, feign incapacity; when active, inactivity. When near, make it appear that you are far away; when far away, that you are to lure him; feign disorder and strike him. When he concentrates, prepare against him; where he is strong, avoid him. Anger his general and confuse him. Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance.
Sun TzuWeak leadership can wreck the soundest strategy; forceful execution of even a poor plan can often bring victory.
