For a number of months following Braddock's defeat there was a great rush of the frightened people southward.

This is a hyper-game of which all games are but derivatives. It incorporates all the physically possible moves of all the players. In this sense, they are not really an outside event which has the effect of altering the game fundamentally. They are part and parcel of the strategies available to the players and cannot be arbitrarily ruled out.

I do not remember that Wellington or Napoleon ever examined Shakespeare's battles and sieges and strategies, and then decided and established for good and all, that they were militarily flawless; I do not remember that any Nelson, or Drake or Cook ever examined his seamanship and said it showed profound and accurate familiarity with that art; I don't remember that any king or prince or duke has ever testified that Shakespeare was letter-perfect in his handling of royal court-manners and the talk and manners of aristocracies; I don't remember that any illustrious Latinist or Grecian or Frenchman or Spaniard or Italian has proclaimed him a past-master in those languages; I don't remember well, I don't remember that there is testimony great testimony imposing testimony unanswerable and unattackable testimony as to any of Shakespeare's hundred specialties, except one the law.

The strategies of love, the coquetting which form half the composition of a Parisian woman, are utterly unknown here." "That is true," said Lousteau.

The preoccupations here behind the lines filled him with disgust, weariness, and a profound pity for these people in the rear a strange race to him, with the outcries of the papers, questions from such persons old buffoons, worn-out, damaged politicians! patriotic braggings, written-up strategies, anxieties about black bread, sugar cards, or the days when the confectioners were shut.

As regards the comparative expense of the two strategies, the question is not only which would cost the more in the same time, but which would most tend to shorten the war by the effectiveness of its action. The military policy of the allies is open to severer condemnation than that of England, by so much as the party assuming the offensive has by that very fact an advantage over the defensive.
