Know your enemy and know yourself and you will always be victorious

Listen up - there's no war that will end all wars

All warfare is based on deception.

When there's a person, there's a problem. When there's no person, there's no problem

Evil has no capital of its own. It is a parasite on goodness.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

War isnt declared in the name of God; it is a human affair entirely.

In war, as in life, it is often necessary, when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.

Never ascribe to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.

It is only one who is thoroughly acquainted with the evils of warthat can thoroughly understand the profitable way of carrying it on.

There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others.

It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.

Great is the guilt of an unnecessary war.

Either war is obsolete, or men are.

Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.

What is evil? - Whatever springs from weakness.

When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.

Do not let us speak of darker days; let us speak rather of sterner days. These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.

Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.

If you try to cure evil with evil you will add more pain to your fate.

I don't like war. I particularly don't like the celebration of war, which I think the administration is a little bit guilty of.
