It truly does. It's ancient text that has transcended the ages. I was introduced to it in college by a friend of a friend pursuing the military life. It's a known tool for managers in leadership courses and it spoke to me at that point in time. Remains a steady presence on my bureau, the way a coffee table book would. I know another touted book that I'm only in the middle of is The Obstacle is the Way. That one isn't an ancient classic, but it has its points.
