There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general:

(1)Recklessness, which leads to destruction;
(2) Cowardice, which leads to capture;
(3)A hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults;
(4)A delicacy of honour which is sensitive to shame;
(5) Over-Solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble.

These are the five besetting sins

Making a fool of yourself again, boy?

How typical.

[mean_left_hook]

You seem to have quite a bit of time on your hands, for such a great warrior.

I would of thought you would be high in demand right now.

[fatherofalegend]

So do you, apparently.

If I actually cared, perhaps I would be. As it happens, I don't.

[mean_left_hook]

You're right, I should find something better to do than talking to you- like washing the floor for a third time today.

You'll care when the communicators turn into a digital mob.

[awol_sowi]

Huh. Sounds familiar.

[mean_left_hook]

It should, if you're from earth.

[awol_sowi]

Eh, I know the book. More meant...

Used to know a guy who liked to read it at us.

[mean_left_hook]

Was he a teacher, or a friend?

Oh. My. God.

Someone with sense. It's a miracle.

Technically it's not my sense, but I suppose you have to be somewhat logical to see the realistic application.

[2cool4europe]

Exactly.

I need more people like you in my army.

[mean_left_hook]

You have an army?

I have witnessed this first-hand, and can attest to it.

Likewise, remember that the soldier studies tactics; the general studies logistics. Understanding supply lines and maintaining them is another assurance of victory.
