Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart

Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
The easiest and quickest path into the esteem of traditional military authorities is by the appeal to the eye, rather than to the mind. The `polish and pipeclay' school is not yet extinct, and it is easier for the mediocre intelligence to become an authority on buttons, than on tactics.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
...regrettable as it may seem to the idealist, the experience of history provides little warrant for the belief that real progress, and the freedom that makes progress possible, lies in unification. For where unification has been able to establish unity of ideas it has usually ended in uniformity, paralysing the growth of new ideas. And where the unification has merely brought about an artificial or imposed unity, its irksomeness has led through discord to disruption.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
The blurring of the line between policy and strategy] encouraged soldiers to make the preposterous claim that policy should be subservient to their conduct of operations, and (especially in democratic countries) it drew the statesman on to overstep the definite border of his sphere and interfere with his military employees in the actual use of their tools.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
While the nominal strength of a country is represented by its numbers and resources, this muscular development is dependent on the state of its internal organs and nerve-system - upon its stability of control, morale, and supply.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart

Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
Whatever you're meant to do, do it now. The conditions are always impossible.
Quote by -Doris Lessing
There is only one real sin, and that is to persuade oneself that the second-best is anything but the second-best
Quote by -Doris Lessing
How boring these emotions are that we're caught in and can't get free of, no matter how much we want to...
Quote by -Doris Lessing
All sanity depends on this: that it should be a delight to feel heat strike the skin, a delight to stand upright, knowing the bones moving easily under the flesh.
Quote by -Doris Lessing
Anna, there's something very arrogant about insisting on the right to be right.
Quote by -Doris Lessing
This is an inevitable and easily recognizable stage in every revolutionary movement: reformers must expect to be disowned by those who are only too happy to enjoy what has been won for them.
Quote by -Doris Lessing
Yes, it’s because it’s one thing to think poor things and another to allow that African politics could have any resemblance at all to English politics—even such a long time ago.
Quote by -Doris Lessing
“On the highest throne in the world, we still sit only on our own bottom.”

Quote by -Michel Montaigne
“When I am attacked by gloomy thoughts, nothing helps me so much as running to my books. They quickly absorb me and banish the clouds from my mind.”
Quote by -Michel Montaigne
“If I speak of myself in different ways, that is because I look at myself in different ways.”
