Wars do not begin
when one force is aggressive toward
another. They begin when one force
speaks aggression toward another.
No act of aggression begins without a
word. The word ignites the warrior
mechanism in the mind and body.
When we hear aggressive words, we are
compelled to respond. When we
speak aggressive words, we are advanced
upon. A wise soldier knows never
to draw his sword unless he ready, able
and willing to do battle. A
fool draws his sword aimlessly and is
prone to cut himself to death.
