Rightly defined philosophy is simply the love of wisdom.

The function of wisdom is to discriminate between good and evil.

Nobody can give you wiser advice than yourself.

In time of war the laws are silent.

Those wars are unjust which are undertaken without provocation. For only a war waged for revenge or defense can be just.

The sinews of war are infinite money.

Laws are silent in time of war.

An unjust peace is better than a just war.
