Can you imagine what I would do if I could do all I can?

He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious.

Hence that general is skilful in attack whose opponent does not know what to defend; and he is skilful in defense whose opponent does not know what to attack.

Invincibility lies in the defence; the possibility of victory in the attack.

Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.

Supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting.

There has never been a protracted war from which a country has benefited.
