Battles are not won by strength alone!

The wise win before they fight, while the ignorant fight to win.

Detach from emotions and desires; get rid of any fixations.

Nothing is harder to see into thanpeoples nature. The sage looks at subtle phenomena and listens tosmall voices. This harmonizes the outside with the inside and the inside with the outside.

Good generals select intelligent officers, thoughtful advisors, and brave subordinates. They oversee their troops like a fierce tiger with wings.

Do the unexpected, attack the unprepared.

First organize the inner, then organize the outer ... First organize the great, then organize the small. First organize yourself, and then organize others.
