I think ol' Plato says it better.
"Only the Dead Have Seen the End of War" -Plato
I have Sun Zi's first line in the Art of War in mind: War, is an important affair for the state. It is a matter of life and death, a matter of survival or destruction. It cannot be taken lightly. The best war is the war that is never fought. 不战而屈人之兵,善之善者也。
Also, I believe in this: If you're flawed, that means you still can move upwards. If you're perfect, the only way left to go is downward.
