smugdennis > seeing the sky through the middle space of a square-square is as clarifying for the spirit as singing a good sutra.
smugdennis > Whatever would result if, while having lattes at Starbuck&#8217;s with Sun Tsu and Mao Tse-Tung one day, they used a couple paper napkins to describe the art of war as it relates directly to fighting kites.These are a few of my notes from that secret meeting.
smugdennis > As water has no constant form, there are no constant conditions in kite battles. There is only change. Therefore avoid all possible passive and inflexible methods.
smugdennis > Know your opponent.  Be totally present.  
Become constant movement.
smugdennis > Deception and Surprise. These two essential elements come from constant movement. This way the opponents are deceived by illusions, become confused, tired, and unable to rest.
smugdennis > Appear in places to which your opponent must hasten. Move swiftly to where you are not expected. Be at once brave and wise. Control developments.
