Additional quotes by Sun Tzu

At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to oppose you.

When the common soldiers are too strong and their officers too weak, the result is INSUBORDINATION.

Do not repeat the tactics which have gained you one victory, but let your methods be regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances.
