A battle that you win cancels any other bad action of yours. In the same way, by losing one, all the good things worked by you before become vain.

Next Quote
To capture the enemy's entire army is better than to destroy it; to take intact a regiment, a company, or a squad is better than to destroy them. For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the supreme of excellence. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the supreme excellence.
— Sun Tzu
