“The wise warrior avoids the battle.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“Therefore the skillful leader subdues the enemy's troops without any fighting; he captures their cities without laying siege to them; he overthrows their kingdom without lengthy operations in the field.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War:

“Appear at points which the enemy must hasten to defend; march swiftly to places where you are not expected.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“Sun Tzu said: In the practical art of war, the best thing of all is to take the enemy's country whole and intact; to shatter and destroy it is not so good. So, too, it is better to capture an army entire than to destroy it, to capture a regiment, a detachment or a company entire than to destroy them.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War
