Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.

The art of war consists in being always able, even with an inferior army, to have stronger forces than the enemy at the point of attack or the point which is attacked.

We frustrate many designs against us by pretending not to see them.

A military maxim, which ought never to be neglected, is to assemble your cantonments at the point which is most remote and best sheltered from the enemy, especially when he makes his appearance unexpectedly. You will then have time to unite the whole army before he can attack you.

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

War is composed of nothing but accidents...there is but one favorable moment, the great art is to seize it.
