Battle Talent Whole

More From Louise Penny

In the end it all comes down to talent. you can talk all you want about intangibles, i just don't know what that means. talent makes winners, not intangibles. can nice guys win? sure, nice guys can win - if they're nice guys with a lot of talent. nice guys with a little talent finish fourth, and nice guys with no talent finish last.
Nice Mean Winning
The surprise is half the battle. many things are half the battle, losing is half the battle. let's think about what's the whole battle.

Even the bravest cannot fight beyond his power
Fighting Total War
The will of god prevails. in great contests each party claims to act in accordance with the will of god. both may be, and one must be, wrong. god cannot be for and against the same thing at the same time. in the present civil war it is quite possible that god's purpose is something different from the purpose of either party - and yet the human instrumentalities, working just as they do, are of the best adaptation to effect his purpose.
