Prepare for war

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Monday, 6 Oct '08

“In peace, as a wise man, he should make suitable preparation for war.”

--Horace

My Thoughts:
We all must have heard the story of The Ant and The Grasshopper. The Ant works in the summer and collects food for winter where as the Grasshopper dances and sings all summer until it has no food to eat for winter.

The ant acted wisely, and prepared for the tough time. There is a great learning that comes from the story, which is in short taught in the military training that –“the more you sweat in war time, the less you bleed during the war time.”
