Additional quotes by Sun Tzu

To lift an autumn hair is no sign of great strength;
to see the sun and moon is no sign of sharp sight;
to hear the noise of thunder is no sign of a quick ear.

What the ancients called a clever fighter is
one who not only wins,
but excels in winning with ease.

Hence his victories bring him neither
reputation for wisdom
nor credit for courage.
