War Is The Province Of Danger.

Boldness Governed By Superior Intellect Is The Mark Of A Hero.

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

Knowing Is Different From Doing And Therefore Theory Must Never Be Used As Norms For A Standard, But Merely As Aids To Judgment.

Two Qualities Are Indispensable: First, An Intellect That, Even In The Darkest Hour, Retains Some Glimmerings Of The Inner Light Which Leads To Truth; And Second, The Courage To Follow This Faint Light Wherever It May Lead.

Four Elements Make Up The Climate Of War: Danger, Exertion, Uncertainty And Chance.
