“The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected.”

Sun Tzu

Simplified Meaning:

Understanding how to fight and win wars is crucial for any country. War can decide if a country will survive or be destroyed. Because the stakes are so high, leaders must study and understand war deeply. Imagine playing a challenging game like chess, where every move needs careful thought. If you don't plan well, you can lose quickly. Just like in chess, a country must prepare and plan for war to protect itself and its people. Ignoring the study of war means risking everything; hence, great care and attention are needed to make the right decisions.
