Sun Tzu

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."  Sun Tzu, The Art of War

This quote is an interesting analogy that applies to many situations. As responders we must know not only ourselves, but our capabilities when confronted with our enemy (fire, HAZMAT, etc.) or we will struggle to successfully make the situation better.
