  • Those who are victorious plan effectively and change decisively. They are like a great river that maintains its course but adjusts its flow...they have form but are formless. They are skilled in both planning and adapting and need not fear the result of a thousand battles: for they win in advance, defeating those that have already lost.

We shall be unable to turn natural advantages to account unless we make use of local guides.

Thus the good fighter is able to secure himself against defeat, but cannot make certain of defeating the enemy.
