Love and war are the same thing, and stratagems and policy are as allowable in the one as in the other. - Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (Don Quixote Quotes)

Love and war are the same thing, and stratagems and policy are as allowable in the one as in the other.[translation by John Willis Clark]Love and war are the same thing, and as in war it is allowable and common to make use of wiles and stratagems to overcome the enemy.[translation by John Ormsby][El amor y la guerra son una misma cosa; y asi como en la guerra es cosa lícita y acostumbrada usar de ardides y estratagemas para vencer al enemigo.]
