“Ever since you and I were boys of fifteen, I have been in countless battles, from skirmishes to giant wars that determined the fate of nations; if there is one thing I have learned from all that experience, Garanth, it is that battles are alive. Battles are living things. As with beasts, you must try to know them, you must handle them with care and some love, but you must never take your eyes off them, or they will go for your throat. Battles are wild beasts that can never be truly tamed, Garanth. You need both a whip and meat if you want them to turn on your foes and not yourself. The general . . . does not understand this.” WarUnderstandingHonorBattleExperienceStrategyKaoru KurimotoThe Guin SagaWild BeastWar Is HellBattles Are Wild BeastsCount MarisGaranth Book:The Battle of Nospherus Source: The Battle of Nospherus
