"To a surrounded enemy, you must leave a way of escape"

* Sun Tzu(544-496 BC), The art of war.

>This does not mean that the enemy is to be allowed to escape. The object, as Tu Mu puts it, is "to make him believe that there is a road to safety, and thus prevent his fighting with the courage of despair." Tu Mu adds pleasantly: "After that, you may crush him."
