More From B. H. Liddell Hart

The enemy of the black is not the white. the enemy of capitalist is not communist, the enemy of homosexual is not heterosexual, the enemy of jew is not arab, the enemy of youth is not the old, the enemy of hip is not redneck, the enemy of chicano is not gringo and the enemy of women is not men. we all have the same enemy. the enemy is the tyranny of the dull mind. the enemy is every expert who practices technocratic manipulation, the enemy is every proponent of standardization and the enemy is every victim who is so dull and lazy and weak as to allow himself to be manipulated and standardized.
Redneck Men White
Strategic planning is not strategic thinking. indeed, strategic planning often spoils strategic thinking, causing managers to confuse real vision with the manipulation of numbers.
Real Thinking Numbers
The endless cycle of idea and action, endless invention, endless experiment, brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness; knowledge of speech, but not of silence; knowledge of words, and ignorance of the word. all our knowledge brings us nearer to our ignorance, all our ignorance brings us nearer to death, but nearness to death no nearer to god. where is the life we have lost in living? where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? where is the knowledge we have lost in information? the cycles of heaven in twenty centuries bring us farther from god and nearer to the dust.
Ignorance Dust Ideas
In the military we are always looking for ways to leverage up our forces. having greater communications and command and control over your forces than your enemy has over his is a force multiplier. having greater logistics capability than the enemy is a force multiplier. having better-trained commanders is a force multiplier. perpetual optimism, believing in yourself, believing in your purpose, believing you will prevail, and demonstrating passion and confidence is a force multiplier. if you believe and have prepared your followers, the followers will believe.
Military Believe Communication
If americans wish to preserve a country they will recognize, then the first step is to recognize the enemy. public education is the enemy. the entertainment industry is the enemy. the corporate culture is the enemy. the advertising industry is the enemy. and most of the politicians in both parties are the enemy. an enemy is defined as anybody, or any organization, which is attacking the traditional beliefs of americans.
Country Party Organization
There were lots of lies along the way in life. lies without arms, lies that were ill, lies that did harm, lies that could kill. lies on foot, or behind the wheel, black-tie lies, and lies that could steal.

Similar Quotes
It is not without good reason, that he who has not a good memory should never take upon him the trade of lying.
Honesty Memories Lying
Men were considered "free" only so that they might be considered guilty - could be judged and punished: consequently, every act had to be considered as willed, and the origin of every act had to be considered as lying within the consciousness (and thus the most fundamental psychological deception was made the principle of psychology itself).
Lying Independent Men
I'm not a big fan of training, at all. i really don't like it. i've done a few acting classes and i've just hated them. i think they train you to do something, and sometimes you might not be able to break out of it. acting is lying, and lying is acting. so, i just prefer to read the script and do it my own way.
Lying Thinking Class
In memoriam: florence nightingale she whom we love, our lady of compassion, can never die, for love forbids her death. love has bent down in his old kindly fashion, and breathed upon her his immortal breath. on wounded soldiers, in their anguish lying, her gentle spirit shall descend like rain. where the white flag with the red cross is flying, there shall she dwell, the vanquisher of pain.
