Im just starting to read "The Art Of War" written by Sun Tzu..I was wondering what you thought about it? I mean, the beginning is very interesting, and I think it's a good book to read for anyone interested in war tactics and such. Oh, and do you recommend any other good books, it doesn't have to be based on war, but on Martial Arts or anything really..Just curious

Given enough time, any man may master the physical. With enough knowledge, any man may become wise. It is the true warrior who can master both....and surpass the result.

"LeaF.... "The Man who would be King" .... Go for it!

Have you read "Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai"
http://www.hagakureweb.com/hagakure.htm

I was trying to find the right thread in order to include this link to an animation based on "The Art of War"...
Many of the lines in this "cartoon" are taken from the Hagakure, the book of the samurai, and Sun Tzu's "The Art of War".
"Sun Tzu was way ahead of his time, he was writing thousands of years ago and was already advising that the best war leaves a country intact and kills no one."

Interesting animations...
