Want

The keener the want the lustier the growth. [Wendell Phillips]

War (the art of war)

War challenges virtually every other institution of society [the justice and equity of its economy, the adequacy of its political systems, the energy of its productive plant, the bases, wisdom and purposes of its foreign policy. [Walter Millis]

Soldiers win battles and generals get the credit for them. [Cf. Napoleon Bonaparte]

Waste

Regular waste can be worse than loss. Every sound person would do well to keep the topic of waste before him rather often. The scope of thrift is limitless. [Cf. Thomas A. Edison]

Make the best use of both time and money. Add industry and frugal dealings if they pay very well and if you’re free to it. [Cf. Benjamin Franklin]

Weakness

The weakest soul, within itself unblest, leans for all pleasure on another's breast. [Oliver Goldsmith]

Going for character: why not now, and where you stand? [Cf. Robert Louis Stevenson]
