The Art of War

The point is winning without fighting

Know yourself, know the enemy, win with ease


First eliminate the risk of defeat, than look for victory

Recklessness, cowardice, haste, pride, mercy leads to defeat


To secure ourselves is in our hands.

Enemy provides the opportunity to be defeated.


Know when to fight and when not to fight.

Plan before the battle, count the cost if you wish to fight

Haste is stupid but long delays are not clever either


Evade stronger enemy

If the enemy is united, separate them

Don’t make your enemy desperate, leave an outlet

Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.


Warfare Is Deception
