Notes

^ Note that "Zi" (子; "Tzu" according to Wades-Giles spelling) was used as a suffix for the family name of a respectable man in ancient Chinese culture. In this case, "Zi" is not the personal name. It is a rough equivalent to "Sir" and is commonly translated into English as "Master".

^ Thus, what enables the wise sovereign and the good general to strike and conquer, and achieve things beyond the reach of ordinary men, is FOREKNOWLEDGE. 5.

.Through you we learn to be invisible, through you inaudible and hence we can hold the enemy's fate in our hands.

Of all those in the army close to the commander none is more intimate than the secret agent; of all rewards none more liberal than those given to secret agents; of all matters none is more confidential than those relating to secret operations.

Opportunities multiply as they are seized.

Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance.

Secret operations are essential in war; upon them the army relies to make its every move.

Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory.^ Victory is infinitely more important than war and peace.

^ Sun Tzu When the common soldiers are too strong and their officers too weak, the result is INSUBORDINATION. When the officers are too strong and the common soldiers too weak, the result is COLLAPSE. When the higher officers are angry and insubordinate, and on meeting the enemy give battle on their own account from a feeling of resentment, before the commander-in-chief can tell whether or no he is in a position to fight, the result is RUIN. -Sun Tzu The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom.

.The general who loses makes but few calculations beforehand.

The good fighters of old first put themselves beyond the possibility of defeat, and then waited for an opportunity of defeating the enemy.

The quality of decision is like the well-timed swoop of a falcon which enables it to strike and destroy its victim.

.Then the most penetrating spies cannot pry in nor can the wise lay plans against you.

There is no instance of a nation benefitting from prolonged warfare.

Thus it is that in war the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won, whereas he who is destined to defeat first fights and afterwards looks for victory.

Thus, what is of supreme importance in war is to attack the enemy's strategy.

And therefore those skilled in war bring the enemy to the field of battle and are not brought there by him.

When the enemy is at ease, be able to weary him; when well fed, to starve him; when at rest, to make him move.

Then strike. --Tu Mu, Ch. 7 (p. .110 in Samuel B. Griffith edition) For "golden bridge," see 'misattributed,' below.

Too frequent rewards indicate that the general is at the end of his resources; too frequent punishments that he is in acute distress.

Speed is the essence of war. Take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness; travel by unexpected routes and strike him where he has taken no precautions.

Bestow rewards without respect to customary practice; publish orders without respect to precedent.
^ Too frequent rewards signify that the enemy is at the end of his resources; too many punishments betray a condition of dire distress.

.The general that hearkens not to my counsel nor acts upon it, will suffer defeat: — let such a one be dismissed!

If words of command are not clear and distinct, if orders are not thoroughly understood, the general is to blame. But if his orders are clear, and the soldiers nevertheless disobey, then it is the fault of their officers.

A leader leads by example not by force.

A skilled commander seeks victory from the situation and does not demand it of his subordinates.

If your opponent is of choleric temperment, seek to irritate him.

One defends when his strength is inadequate, he attacks when it is abundant.

Being unconquerable lies with yourself; being conquerable lies with your enemy.

You cannot stop innovation.

The expert in battle seeks his victory from strategic advantage and does not demand it from his men.

Engage people with what they expect; it is what they are able to discern and confirms their projections.^ Therefore, against those skilled in attack, the enemy does not know where to defend, and against the experts in defense, the enemy does not know where to attack.

.It settles them into predictable patterns of response, occupying their minds while you wait for the extraordinary moment — that which they cannot anticipate.

Where the army is, prices are high; when prices rise the wealth of the people is exhausted.

If fighting is sure to result in victory, then you must fight, even though the ruler forbid it; if fighting will not result in victory, then you must not fight even at the ruler's bidding.

This article is about the military strategist Sun Tzu. For the mathematician of the same name, see Sun Tzu (mathematician).

Sun Tzu (544 BC – 496 BC) (孫子 pinyin: Sūn Zǐ) was a Chinese writer. He wrote The Art of War, a very famous book on military strategy (how to fight wars). He is also one of the earliest realists in international relations theory.

The name Sun Tzu is a title of honour given to Sun Wu (孫武, Sūn Wǔ), the author's name. The word Wu, meaning "martial" or "military", is same as the word in "wu shu" or "martial art". Sun Wu also has a courtesy name, Chang Qing (長卿, Cháng Qīng)
