WAR
War is an evil thing to both victor and vanquished.
It is better to avoid than to make war.
The most honourable death is on the battlefield.
To die in battle from a thousand cuts of the sword is easier than to die in bed.
He who incites soldiers to courage in action is of more value than a thousand fighting men.
An army to a king is like wings to a bird.
To carry out a well-devised plan in war is more effectual than strokes and thrusts.
A battle is fought by feints and stratagems.
