In War The Will Is Directed At

I Shall Proceed From The Simple To The Complex. But In War More Than In Any Other Subject We Must Begin By Looking At The Nature Of The Whole; For Here More Than Elsewhere The Part And The Whole Must Always Be Thought Of Together.

It Should Be Noted That The Seeds Of Wisdom That Are To Bear Fruit In The Intellect Are Sown Less By Critical Studies And Learned Monographs Than By Insights, Broad Impressions, And Flashes Of Intuition.

Be Audacious And Cunning In Your Plans, Firm And Persevering In Their Execution, Determined To Find A Glorious End.

The Bloody Solution Of The Crisis, The Effort For The Destruction Of The Enemy's Forces, Is The First-born Son Of War.

In The Whole Range Of Human Activities, War Most Closely Resembles A Game Of Cards.
