Gregory David Roberts
“The most precious gift you can bring to your lover is your suffering.”
Gregory David Roberts, Shantaram

Carl von Clausewitz
“The enemy of a good plan is the dream of a perfect plan.”
Prussian General Karl von Clausewitz, Vom Kriege, 1832

Carl von Clausewitz
“To achieve victory we must mass our forces at the hub of all power and movement. The enemy’s "center of gravity”
Karl Von Clausewitz

Henry David Thoreau
“I think that we should be men first, and subjects afterward. It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right. The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right. It is truly enough said that a corporation has no conscience; but a corporation of conscientious men is a corporation with a conscience.”
Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience and Other Essays

Henry David Thoreau
“If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of government, let it go, let it go: perchance it will wear smooth—certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring, or a pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps you may consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil; but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter-friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn.”
Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience and Other Essays
