Sora — memorable quote from No Game, No Life

“In every time, in every world, the strong polish their fangs while the weak polish their wisdom.”

“Clausewitz, he pointed out that no matter how carefully one plans, on the battlefield, even the smallest of details can cause setbacks. Regardless of how well-thought it is, armchair strategizing only works in the realm of theory. Unexpected troubles, or uncontrollable factors such as weather. Operations face those sorts of troubles. They are the cause of strife on the battlefield.”

“I've learned that from a war ignited by revenge, nothing can be born, but sorrow.”

“If it's the army's job to end a war, it's the king's job to find a place for it to end.”

“Most of the winning results in war is caused by pursuit. Do you know why? Leaving aside modern times, it seems during the era of bayonet warfare, the worst losses always, arise from the moments when the losing side is being pursued.”
