If you must strike out at someone when you get angry, be careful not to strike yourself.

It is much better that your enemies think you are crazy than reasonable and rational.

Don't try to change your enemies, try to control them. Know who they are, where they are, what they think and whom they trust.

The only way to keep a secret is to say nothing.

The best defense against the treacherous is treachery.

Often you lose the bait to catch the fish.

The best armor is to keep out of range.

A thousand friends are not enough; a single enemy is too many.

If you can't win, make the price of your enemy's victory exorbitant.

You can't put a good edge on bad steel.

More -

If you must lie, be brief.

Always draw the snake from its hole with another man's hand.

If you are forced to bow - bow very, very low, and hold that bitter memory until you take your revenge.

When you compromise, you lose. When you seem to have compromised, you take a step toward winning.

To finish sooner, take your time.

If you are the anvil, be patient; if you are the hammer, strike.

To deceive an enemy, pretend you fear him.

Misfortunes always come in by the door left open for them.

And -

Many a difference can be resolved between the sheets.

"A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind.

Let your gun therefore be the companion of your walks." - Thomas Jefferson, Letter to his nephew, [Kates,"Handgun Prohibition and the Original Meaning of the Second Amendment," 82 Michigan Law Revue 221-2,228-9 (1983)].
