A New-born Government Must Shine And Astonish

Nothing Is So Important In War As An Undivided Command.

Oh Well, No Matter What Happens, There's Always Death.

Wherever Flowers Cannot Be Reared, There Man Cannot Live.

Unity Of Command Is Essential To The Economy Of Time. Warfare In The Field Was Like A Siege: By Directing All One's Force To A Single Point A Breach Might Be Made, And The Equilibrium Of Opposition Destroyed.

A Leader Has The Right To Be Beaten, But Never The Right To Be Surprised.
