          First Setence:

          "ACCORDING TO AN OLD STORY, a lord of ancient China once asked his physician, a member of a family of healers, which of them was the most skilled in the art."
          "Military action is important to the nation-it is the ground of death and life, the path of survival and destruction, so it is imperative to examine it."
          "Warfare is the greatest affair of state, the basis of life and death, the Tao (Dao) for survival or extinction."
          "necessarily as Ssu-ma Ch'ien relates? Was the book ascribed to him written by him?"
          "Sun Tzu said: War is a question of vital importance to the state, a matter of life and death, the road to survival or ruin."
          "SUN-TZU SAID: "Warfare is the greatest affair of state, the basis of life and death, the Tao to survival or extinction."
          "1. Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State."
          "Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the state."
          "Master Sun counseled: A critical issue for any nation is war."
          "The vision of what the organization wants to be must be planned with an awareness of reality."
          "This is war."
          "OVER the centuries countless Chinese critics have devoted a great deal of attention to examination of literary works ascribed to the `classical' period, an era usually defined as extending from 551 B.C., the probable birth year of Confucius, to 249 B.C., when King Chao of Ch'in liquidated the Chou dynasty."
          "SUN TZU SAID: The military is a great matter of the state."
          "Warfare is the greatest affair of state, the basis of life and death, the Tao to survival or extinction."
          "Sun-tzu is the earliest extant strategic book in human history."
          "IN SOME INSTANCES THIS TRANSLATION MAY RESIST IMMEDIATE understanding."
