The Art of War


The Art of War

Be Persistent.

Pursue one's own strategic designs to overawe the enemy. Then one can take the enemy's cities and overthrow the state.

-Sun Tzu

If the sovereign heeds these strategems of mine and act upon them,
he will surely win the war,
and I will stay with him.

If the sovereign neither heeds nor acts upon them,
he will certainly suffer defeat,
and I shall leave.

-Sun Tzu
