“Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“The characteristic of the hour is that the commonplace mind, knowing itself to be commonplace, has the assurance to proclaim the rights of the commonplace and to impose them wherever it will. As they say in the United States: "to be different is to be indecent." The mass crushes beneath it everything that is different, everything that is excellent, individual, qualified and select. Anybody who is not like everybody, who does not think like everybody, runs the risk of being eliminated. And it is clear, of course, that this "everybody" is not "everybody." "Everybody" was normally the complex unity of the mass and the divergent, specialised minorities. Nowadays, "everybody" is the mass alone.”
the Revolt of the Masses • Jose Ortega y Gasset“What terrible tragedies realism inflicts on people.'”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“It was her habit to build up laughter out of inadequate materials.”
The Grapes of Wrath • John Steinbeck“ He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu
