A leader leads by example not by force.

Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat.

Victory comes from finding opportunities in problems.

It is more important to outhink your enemy, than to outfight him

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.

He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.

Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.

Those who are victorious plan effectively and change decisively. They are like a great river that maintains its course but adjusts its flow.

Swift as the wind. Quiet as the forest. Conquer like the fire. Steady as the mountain

The line between disorder and order lies in logistics.

Try to be someone upon whom nothing is lost!

I lost someone very close to me and afterward I believed I could have saved him had I been a better friend to him. But everyone disappears, no matter who loves them.

If it has a name or a description it has or will exist at some point in time

There will never come a time when I will be able to resist my emotions.

I'm not invited. I'm not on the A list, haven't been on it in 20 years and my feet have never trod its red fluffy carpets.

The important thing is, you have to have something important to say about the world.

Someone wrote a piece about Henry Green in The Partisan Review that was so intriguing that I got one of his novels, Loving, I believe, which was the first that came to attention in the United States.

The last thinkg I want to do is spend the rest of my life pretending to be 17 or 27. Now it's pretty interesting to me to see what can be said in the point of view of where I am now.

Everyone has the right to their own opinion.
