Do I Not Destroy My Enemies When I Make Them My

"It is easy to love your friend, but sometimes the hardest lesson to learn is to love your enemy."

"Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others."

"Convince your enemy that he will gain very little by attacking you; this will diminish his enthusiasm"

"When the enemy is relaxed, make them toil. When full, starve them. When settled, make them move."

"If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected ."

"When strong, avoid them. If of high morale, depress them. Seem humble to fill them with conceit. If at ease, exhaust them. If united, separate them. Attack their weaknesses. Emerge to their surprise."
