Additional quotes by Sun Tzu

it is better to recapture an army entire than to destroy it, to capture a regiment, a detachment or a company entire than to destroy them.

The general that hearkens to my counsel and acts upon it, will conquer: let such a one be retained in command! The general that hearkens not to my counsel nor acts upon it, will suffer defeat: — let such a one be dismissed!

In battle, there are not more than two methods of attack — the
direct and the indirect; yet these two in combination give rise to
an endless series of maneuvers.
