Strategy and Tactics

"Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat." ~ Sun Tze

"Tactics is knowing what to do when there is something to do; strategy is knowing what to do when there is nothing to do" ~ Savielly Grigoryevich Tartakower

"If strategy represents the ends, tactics are the means. Once we have a clear set of goals and intermediate objectives, we can measure potential tactics and combinations against them. The more we do this the easier it becomes; our strategic goals become incorporated into our tactical thinking. Our reactions will be faster and at the same time more accurate, and speed is always of the essence." ~ Gary Kasporav
