Nothing is more difficult than the art of maneuver. What is difficult is to make the devious route the most direct and turn misfortune to advantage. Thus, march by an indirect route and divert the enemy by enticing him with a bait. —Sun-Tzu, The Art of War
The art of misdirection has its purposes; for what leader does not rely on it on a daily basis? But such deceptions, political or military, can carry a realm only so far toward victory. After that, it remains in the purview of the warriors. —Sun-Tzu Liao, journal entry, 21 February 3058, Sian
Now war is based on deception. Move when it is advantageous and create changes in the situation by dispersal and concentration. —Sun-Tzu, The Art of War
Turmoil. It is the genesis of both political and military solutions. When my opponents stand confused, out of ignorance or through my designs, then I have been given free rein. And someone must bring order. —Sun-Tzu Liao, journal entry, 3 March 3060, Sian

And the proper time to weigh such consequences is before a course is begun, when the cost may be evaluated within a proper frame of reference.

The reason troops slay the enemy is because they are enraged. —Sun-Tzu, The Art of War
What most generals seem to forget is that this works both ways. —Sun-Tzu Liao, journal entry, 28 July 3059, Sian
