“A general in time of war is constantly bombarded by reports both true and false; by errors arising from fear or negligence or hastiness; by disobedience born of right or wrong interpretations, of ill will; of a proper or mistaken sense of duty; of laziness; or of exhaustion; and by accident that nobody could have foreseen. In short, he is exposed to countless impressions, most of them disturbing, few of them encouraging. ... If a man were to yield to these pressures, he would never complete an operation.” IfsMenWarBornDutyPressureErrorsIllAccidentsImpressionOperationsReportsInterpretationYieldExposedLazinessMistakenDisturbingDisobedienceExhaustionNegligenceIll WillBombardedForeseenTrue And FalseBombarded By Book:On War Source: On War
