More From Tom Osborne

Always mystify, mislead, and surprise the enemy, if possible; and when you strike and overcome him, never let up in the pursuit so long as your men have strength to follow; for an army routed, if hotly pursued, becomes panic-stricken, and can then be destroyed by half their number. the other rule is, never fight against heavy odds, if by any possible maneuvering you can hurl your own force on only a part, and that the weakest part, of your enemy and crush it. such tactics will win every time, and a small army may thus destroy a large one in detail, and repeated victory will make it invincible.

And yet, in each human coupling, a thousand million sperm vie for a single egg. multiply those odds by countless generations, against the odds of your ancestors being alive; meeting; siring this precise son; that exact daughter... until your mother loves a man she has every reason to hate, and of that union, of the thousand million children competing for fertilization, it was you, only you, that emerged. to distill so specific a form from that chaos of improbability, like turning air to gold... that is the crowning unlikelihood. the thermodynamic miracle.

As we move forward, i am looking for a new leader of the chicago police department to address the problems at the very heart of the policing profession. the problem is sometimes referred to as "the thin blue line." the problem is other times referred to as "the code of silence." it is this tendency to ignore. it is the tendency to deny. it is the tendency, in some cases, to cover up the bad actions of a colleague or colleagues.

I've been around a long time, and young men, if there is one thing i know, it is that the only way to kiss a girl for the first time is to look like you want to and intend do, and move in fast enough to seem eager but slow enough to give her a chance to say "so anyway ..." and look up as if she's trying to remember your name.

All that i did," she said, "everything i tried to do. all for nothing." nothing is done entirely for nothing, said the fox of dreams. nothing is wasted. you are older, and you have made decisions, and you are not the fox you were yesterday. take what you have learned, and move on.

China is a great nation that offers the world a great culture, so many good things. i love the chinese people and i hope there is the possibility of having good relations. we're in contact, we talk, we are moving forward but for me, to have as a friend a great country like china, which has so much culture and has so much opportunity to do good, would be a joy.
