And now, Sun Tzu Wu and The Art of War
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know you've heard about this ancient book of wisdom. It's very popular in the business world these days.

Here are some quotes from Thomas Cleary's introduction to The Art of War:

Those who are skilled in combat do not become angered. Those who are skilled at winning do not become afraid. Thus the wise win before they fight, while the ignorant fight to win.

This idea of knowing while being unknown, repeated again and again [is] a key to success.

The simultaneous appreciationn of very different points of view is a powerful Taoist technique [and EQ technique as well!]. That Sun Tzu calmly teaches the ruthless art of war while condemning war [is a perfect exampale].... Understanding how people can be manipulated through emotions, for example, is as useful for those who wish to avoid this as it is for those who wish to practice it.

Speed does not mean haste.

When victory is won, it should be complete, to avoid the expense of maintaining an occupation force.

When you know both yourself and others, you are never in danger.

The idea is to be filled with energy while at the same time draining opponents.

The five dangers: (1) to be too willing to die, (2) too eager to live, (3) too quick to anger, (4) too puritanical or (5) too sentimental.

Real ruthlessness, the coldness of complete objectivity, always includes oneself in its cutting assessment of the real situation.

The paradox of ambiguity is an exact science in the Taroist literature of higher psychology.
