Timidity Is The Root Of Prudence In

Although Our Intellect Always Longs For Clarity And Certainty, Our Nature Often Finds Uncertainty Fascinating.

The Best Strategy Is Always To Be Very Strong.

If We Do Not Learn To Regard A War, And The Separate Campaigns Of Which It Is Composed, As A Chain Of Linked Engagements Each Leading To The Next, But Instead Succumb To The Idea That The Capture Of Certain Geographical Points Or The Seizure Of Undefended Provinces Are Of Value In Themselves, We Are Liable To Regard Them As Windfall Profits.

In War More Than Anywhere Else, Things Do Not Turn Out As We Expect.

War Is Only Caused Through The Political Intercourse Of Governments And Nations - War Is Nothing But A Continuation Of Political Intercourse With An Admixture Of Other Means.
