John Minford, #SunTzu 6: 8 "The Skillful Warrior attacks so that the enemy cannot defend; he defends so that the enemy cannot attack."
For the decades I've been reading this verse, I've always been amazed at the inner voice of skeptical cynicism I hear as a subtext to Master Sun's guidance. It's not a particularly intelligent voice. "Yeah right." "Sure." "Easier said than done." Etcetera.
Everyone defends when attacked, I'd think with a slight bit more intellectual heft. All enemies attack. How do you prevent an enemy from attacking? This is idealistic malarkey, my inner voice of negativity resists. Who actually believes this stuff?
