In War Everything Is Simple, But It's

In War More Than Anywhere Else, Things Do Not Turn Out As We Expect.

In War The Will Is Directed At An Animate Object That Reacts.

War Is Not Merely A Political Act But A Real Political Instrument, A Continuation Of Political Intercourse, A Carrying Out Of The Same By Other Means.

Whenever Armed Forces . . . Are Used, The Idea Of Combat Must Be Present. . . . The End For Which A Soldier Is Recruited, Clothed, Armed, And Trained, The Whole Object Of His Sleeping, Eating, Drinking, And Marching Is Simply That He Should Fight At The Right Place And The Right Time.

War Is The Domain Of Physical Exertion And Suffering.
