SIXTY-NINE

The generals have a saying:

"Rather than make the first move

It is better to wait and see.

Rather than advance an inch

It is better to retreat a yard."


This is called

Going forward without advancing,

Pushing back without using weapons.




There is no greater misfortune

Than underestimating your enemy.

Underestimating your enemy

means thinking that he is evil.

Thus you destroy your three treasures

And become an enemy of yourself.


When two great forces oppose each other,

                 The victory will go

To the one that knows how to yield.

LAO TSU.
