字词 善败者不亡
释义

shàn bài zhě bù wáng 善败者不亡

Those Adept at Coping with Defeat Cannot Be Destroyed.

善于应对败局者不会灭亡。用兵打仗,任何一方都不可能保证只胜不败。高超的统帅,不仅要善于把握优势和胜局,还要善于应对劣势和败局。当败局无可挽回时,要尽可能地发挥主观能动性,力争将己方的损失降到最低,避免一败涂地,引发总体性、根本性的动摇、崩溃和覆灭。这一术语体现了在被动中寻求主动的辩证法,在现代社会具有更为广泛的应用。

Those who are adept at coping with defeat cannot be destroyed. No party in a war can always be sure of victory and never be defeated. An outstanding commander must not only be skilled at using his advantages when in a position of strength, he must also be adept at coping with disadvantages when in a position of weakness. When defeat is inevitable, he must take the initiative as much as possible and reduce losses to the minimum, thereby avoiding a catastrophic defeat which could lead to an overall breakdown, collapse and destruction. This expression exemplifies the dialectic of seeking to take the initiative when at a disadvantage; it is even more broadly applicable in contemporary society.
