I wouldn't really betray you, Treachery is for those too weak to confront those they must face _________________ "To overcome the intelligent by folley is contrary to the natural order of things.

hahaha
get your Sun Tzu wright: Why not use treachery when it is the most efficient way to get to your goals?
However when your goal is to live an honourable life, you dont use treachery
(your oh so honourable life could be rather short though, mwahaha) _________________ Imagination > knowledge

I wasn't quoting Sun Tzu, I've read his works, and he is a masterful strategist, however, he is not the only strategist y'know. Some people are lesser known, but just as great _________________ "To overcome the intelligent by folley is contrary to the natural order of things.

I never said Sun Tzu was a strategist. He just is the collector and describer of military tactics used in his days (and a bit before). Just as von Clausewitz isnt a strategist, he only described and commented on the tactics used by Fredric the Great and by Napoleon. And more recent Sir Rupert Smith isnt a strategist, he just described afterwards what he has seen happening.
Strategists make things happen, they dont have time to write books.
hmmm, they probably dont have time to tart on forums either

If I quoted Sun Tzu I would use this one:
"All warfare is based on Deception"
It's a good'un
And I'll have ye know, I'm not tarting, we're having a creative discussion  _________________ "To overcome the intelligent by folley is contrary to the natural order of things.

I have another quote from a famous strategist:
"Nothing would please me more than to slowly bleed the life from you"
Any idea which mastermind came up with this one? _________________ Imagination > knowledge

Not sure on that one Vik I have heard it before but can't place who...though I head it in french but to lazy to google it.
One of my favorites that I follow from Sun Tzu,
A leader leads by example not by force.
As we speak I actually just started reading the book of five rings by musashi _________________ Melons are good for yer health....make sure ye always got a pair on hand |

I am not into those Asian strategists. I am more into the western strategists, such as Ronald Reagan. _________________ Imagination > knowledge
