cardemaister, I think this friendly advice contained in intriguing quotes on the conduct of war and peace and the development of allies is just what FFL needs as unlimited posting looms on the horizon.

Well, how about some intriguing etc quotes from the Hitopadesha (Friendly advice)? Hitopadesha (Sanskrit:हितोपदेशः Hitopadeśa) is a collection of Sanskrit fables in prose and verse written in the 12th century. It is an independent treatment of the Panchatantra.[1] It is meant as an exposition on statecraft (including the conduct of war and peace and the development of allies) but was produced in a format easily digestible for young princes. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Share Long <sharelong60@...> wrote: > > They're beautiful cardemaister, thank you for posting.
