Sun Tzu

Know your enemy and know yourself and you can fight a hundred battles without disaster.

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Know thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles, a thousand victories.

Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.

For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
