Politics Is The Womb In

Self-reliance Is The Best Defence Against The Pressures Of The Moment.

A General In Time Of War Is Constantly Bombarded By Reports Both True And False; By Errors Arising From Fear Or Negligence Or Hastiness; By Disobedience Born Of Right Or Wrong Interpretations, Of Ill Will; Of A Proper Or Mistaken Sense Of Duty; Of Laziness; Or Of Exhaustion; And By Accident That Nobody Could Have Foreseen. In Short, He Is Exposed To Countless Impressions, Most Of Them Disturbing, Few Of Them Encouraging. ... If A Man Were To Yield To These Pressures, He Would Never Complete An Operation.

It Is Even Better To Act Quickly And Err Than To Hesitate Until The Time Of Action Is Past.

Whoever Does Great Things With Small Means Has Successfully Reached The Goal.

In War More Than Anywhere Else In The World Things Happen Differently To What We Had Expected, And Look Differently When Near, To What They Did At A Distance.
