"Engage the enemy's army, we must."

Among students of Chinese history, making up Sun-Tzu quotes is considered a form of homage and a sign of great respect to the legendary Chinese general, who is often credited with a variety of military innovations such as the frumple-gun, the exploding ratatouille sandwich, and the terrifying boogiesuit. In addition, his world-famous tome on military strategy, the Shih Chi (Art of War) has been badly mistranslated numerous times by users of cheaply-printed Chinese-English dictionaries, yielding such "bastardized" works as The War on Art, The Chart of Warts, and Portrait of the Artist as a Young War.

To add to the confusion, Chinese historians have recently announced the discovery and authentication of several "unfinished" chapters supposedly written by Sun-Tzu ca. 490 BCE, and possibly meant for inclusion in later editions of the Shih Chi. These new sections cover such topics as how to effectively fight with one's in-laws, how to avoid having to do repetitive household chores, how to pick up women in public drinking establishments, and how to sneak out of sushi restaurants without paying.

[edit] Sun-Tzu's Most Quotable Quotes

• "You must listen to the words of Sun-Tzu. If you will not listen to the words of Sun-Tzu, one third of your army will die, one third of your army will desert you and one third of your army will point at you and accuse you of being obsessed with dividing everything by three."

• "It is not a victory unless you say `Jumanji´."

• "Asians are good at Starcraft because they're always squinting, thus they can see things sharply. Remember to always squint in war."

• "The general who heeds the words of Sun-Tzu shall be victorious. The general who does not heed the words of Sun-Tzu shall be defeated. The general who has never even heard of Sun-Tzu and just wants to blow things up indiscriminately shall be elected President of the United States."

• "To win, you must know yourself, know your enemy, know your weapons, and know how to blow those motherfucking bastards up."

• "The greatest victory is when all their base are belong to you before you set them up the bomb."

• "Make war, not kool aide."

[edit] Sun-Tzu on The Pursuit of Knowledge

• "Know what your enemies are afraid of. They will retreat, and you will destroy them without fighting any lawsuits."

• "There are only five musical notes. Those who say there are actually twelve notes in an octave are simply trying to mess with your head."

• "Know your enemy, know yourself, know your girlfriend's ex-con husband's abusive temperament, know his work schedule, and most importantly know the fastest way to get the hell out of there if he decides to come home early."

[edit] Sun-Tzu on The Oldest Trick in the Book

[edit] Sun-Tzu on Strategy in Warfare

• "Always remember, pikemen defeat horsemen, but archers defeat pikemen."

• "The key to victory is to produce and accumulate a large number of medium-sized tanks. Do not waste your resources on other technology; it is useless."

• "All men can see the tactics whereby I conquer, but there's no way I'm letting them see my wife naked."

• "The high ground is easier to defend, and easier to attack from. The low ground, on the other hand, is often wet and full of mosquitoes. The underground is often too full of goth kids and shitty emo bands to be worth attacking or defending. Ground beef is good with mustard and pickles between two slices of bread. Coffee grounds should simply be thrown away, though they sometimes make good compost."

• "There's no 'tra' in 'Strategy'."

• "All warfare is based on deception. Hey, what's that behind you?"

(on the Art of Warcraft)

• "A full-house beats a flush. A sword beats a full-house."

• "In the practical art of war, you must be prepared to fight at any time in the future. In the impractical art of war, you should have been prepared quite some time ago, and it's probably already too late. You're screwed."

• "Most people aren't so scary once they've been poked in the eye."

[edit] Sun-Tzu on Victory and Defeat

• "Losing a war is the surest path to defeat in war."

• "You shall not win a war by reading The Art Of War alone. You must also assemble an army, do some fighting, kill some guys, that sort of thing."

• "Victory cannot be achieved by swanning about and reciting bad poetry, unless you are fighting an enemy that gives up or simply dies outright upon being exposed to swanning and bad poetry."

• "If your enemy wins the war, you did not. Or, more likely, you were probably reading a copy of my book that you didn't pay for."

• "A victory is only made official by a celebration involving ice cream, petroleum jelly, and party hats."

• "A victory is only official in ranked matches, bastard." (on The Art of Online War)
