104-Rapidity be That of the Wind.jpg





“ Rapidity be That of the Wind “

「疾如風」

* * *


孫子・軍争篇第七
「 故其疾如風、其徐如林、侵掠如火、難知如陰、不動如山・・・ 」

from Sun Tzu, Chapter 7, passage 17-19

* * *

“ 故其疾如風,其徐如林 “

Let your rapidity be that of the wind, your silence that of the forest.

“ 侵掠如火,難知如陰,不動如山 “

In raiding and plundering like fire,
be as hard to know as the shadow, immovable like a mountain.
