“And the combat ceased, for want of combatants.”
Pierre Corneille
“Our greatest foes, and whom we must chiefly combat, are within.”
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
“Self-discipline, although difficult, and not always easy while combating negative emotions, should be a defensive measure. At least we will be able to prevent the advent of negative conduct dominated by negative emotion. That is 'shila', or moral ethics. Once we develop this by familiarizing ourselves with it, along with mindfulness and conscientiousness, eventually that pattern and way of life will become a part of our own life.”
Dalai Lama
“No wise combatant underestimates their antagonist.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“If your job is to fix trucks, the bottom line is how many trucks you fix. The combat Army has a totally different ethic: Accomplish your mission and take care of your men.”
Col Harry Summers
“Unlike all other forms of lute or combat the conditions are that the winner shall take nothing; neither his ease, nor his pleasure, nor any notions of glory; nor, if he wins far enough, shall there be any reward within himself.”
Ernest Hemingway
