Quote of the Week- Sun Tzu
Today, we quip the ancient Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu (544-496 BC) who ironically has a statue of himself in Tottori, Japan. We should perhaps dedicate an entry to the tsunami sufferers some time...........hmmm......yeah, that PSA series didn't go over too well (you need to be a long-time reader of this blog to perhaps get the joke and we don't have very many of those).
Tzu's most famous work "Art of War," which Paris Hilton has supposedly read!, was listed by "Mental Floss" magazine as one of the best books once can read on the Washington, DC metro commute between Arlington and the Smithsonian stops (Mental Floss actually said it was one of the best short books to read, we are putting in the DC metro to hopefully 'increase our circulation numbers' in that area which has considerably more people than War, WVa.,* where I am blogging from at the moment**).
Here is the quote from the great Chinese philosopher which will paste here so we can get out of the building in time for Oprah:
"If ignorant both of your enemy and yourself, you are certain to be in peril."
*- There is actually a coal-mining town called War, WVa., the far southeastern part of the state.
**- It is not actually where I am blogging from!
