Thus, though I have heard of successful military operations that were clumsy but swift, cleverness has never been seen associated with long delays.
Sun TzuTherefore a victorious army first wins and then seeks battle; a defeated army first battles and then seeks victory.
Sun TzuFighting with a large army under your command is nowise different from fighting with a small one: it is merely a question of instituting signs and signals.
