“We spent today sending men to hell. What's more natural than to pass the night dreaming of procreating a few more to take their place?”
“It takes more courage to send men into battle than to fight the battle yourself.”
“No proceeding is better than that which you have concealed from the enemy until the time you have executed it. To know how to recognize an opportunity in war, and take it, benefits you more than anything else. Nature creates few men brave, industry and training makes many. Discipline in war counts more than fury.”
“What we do today is more important than what we plan to do in the future.”
“But nature is always more subtle, more intricate, more elegant than what we are able to imagine.”
“Today is not yesterday. And tomorrow is nothing more than an idyllic day dream.”
