War by Other Means GEOECONOMICS AND STATECRAFT
Robert D. Blackwill and Jennifer M. Harris
To compound matters, as economic techniques of statecraft have become a lost art in the United States, the rest of the world has moved in the opposite direction. Rus sia, China, and others now routinely look to geoeconomic means, often as a fi rst resort, and often to undermine American power and infl uence. In ignoring the ever- greater role of geoeconomics in the international system, the United States squanders opportunities and dilutes its own foreign policy outcomes. It weakens the confi dence of Ameri ca’s Asian and European allies. It encourages China to coerce its neighbors and lessens their ability to resist. It gives China free rein in vulnerable African and Latin American nations. It allows Rus sia to bend much of the former Soviet space to its will without serious answer from the United States

Great books help you understand, and they help you feel understood.
It’s good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that money can’t buy.
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.
Believe you can and you’re halfway there.
Too many people spend money they earned..to buy things they don't want..to impress people that they don't like.
A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author.
Everyday is a bank account, and time is our currency. No one is rich, no one is poor, we've got 24 hours each.
It is time for us to stand and cheer for the doer, the achiever, the one who recognizes the challenge and does something about it.
