<p>War is a matter of life and death for a state, necessitating meticulous planning and assessment. A proficient leader engages in battle only when assured of certain triumph, ensuring invincibility. He is attentive, competent, and adaptable. He asserts dominance over the enemy by employing deception and provocation to induce critical mistakes.</p>

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."
