"Lift your eyes and see the glory where the circle of life is drawn. See the never ending story. Come with me to the Gates of Dawn." -
This is from a Celtic Song called Gates of Dawn by a group called Secret Garden. I was on the internet and found it and liked it.

A soldier favors haste over cleverness. That means there are no cheep shots...Strike quickly and you'll end it quickly too. If your oponent has a choleric temper seek to irritate and never fall for an enemies taunts. - Roy Mustang (Fullmetal Alchemist)

That sounds almost exactly like something Sun Tzu would say, just modernized.

Look before you leap.
Think before you act.
Advantage is a better soldier than rashness
People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
If you taunt a bull, you had better be ready to run
...I don't know about that, Jason, Sun Tzu sounded smarter than that.

An old addage: "Look before you leap."
Sun Tzu was indeed smarter, but it just reminds me of his kind of stuff. You can take a look at the quotes of his I put up on another thread (don't remember which one).

Hmm, don't know if I agree with that one. Sometimes your teeth can be the best tools. Like, when you want to open a bag, but can't get it with your hands and you don't want to go look for a pair of scissors or a knife.
