    "Water defeats its opponent the rock by flowing around it". Watching "The Forbidden Kindgom". I don't know if it was a hit or a flop but Kung Fu movies do offer wisdom.

    How is that defeating a rock ? When the water is away, the rock will still be there.

      Perhaps it means that over several millennia the water will wear the rock to sand.

        It is not the spoon that bends; it is only yourself.

        Basic wisdom: recognize that it takes two to tango, and change the dance rather than the partner.

                  You are wrong. Sheldon plays Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock. I hope you know the rules. They are as follows Scissors cut paper Paper covers rock Rock crushes lizard Lizard poisons Spock Spock smashes (or melts) scissors Scissors decapitate lizard Lizard eats paper Paper disproves Spock Spock vaporizes rock Rock breaks scissors Now...lets begin...

                        In a battle the object isn't to kill but rather to succeed at some objective. And often the objective is to simply get past the opponent.

                          I read it more as defeating the opponent by surrounding it rather than simply getting past; still either works, I suppose.
