Sun Tzu (about 543B.C.–470B.C.) was an ancient Chinese military general, strategist and philosopher who is the author of the Art of War. He lived in middle Zhou Dynasty, almost the same time as Confucius (551B.C.–479B.C.) created Confucianism and Lao Tzu wrote Tao Te Ching. The Art of War is as much a text of philosophy as a book of battlefield tactics, and many people have adapted its principles to other facets of their lives, including business management and political leadership, in the past 2,500 years.
Sun Tzu, also known as Sun Wu or Sun Zi, had a very short biography in historical records. His name only appeared in a few battles between Wu and other states about 505B.C. But his quotations and strategies for warfare have become golden rules for military leaders all over the world for more than two thousand years.
The Art of War: Sun Tzu Sayings and History
One of the most interesting parts of history is that a metaphor or a fiction story in a classic book can turn to be a true story later. For example, some of Sun Tzu’s sayings and quotes came true in history.
