“If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results ...” — Sun Tzu Quote

If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.

Now the reason the enlightened prince and the wise general conquer the enemy whenever they move and their achievements surpass those of ordinary men is foreknowledge.

Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look on them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.

He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all its ranks.

If ignorant both of your enemy and yourself, you are certain to be in peril.

Fear clogs; faith liberates.

Fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.

Lobbying has become a term of reproach, as if it were improper to push for a particular belief. This has happened because of paid lobbyists whose opinions are for hire and the fear that decision-makers, whether politicians or officials, are susceptible to their charms and wiles. This has tarred entirely proper lobbying with the same brush.

I fear that too many have sadly surrendered their agency to the adversary and are saying by their conduct, 'I care more about satisfying my own desires than I do about bearing the Savior's power to bless others.'
