"When squaring off with an opponent, first observe whether his physique is great or small. If it is great, then he must have considerable brute strength, and I should respond with superior skill. If he is of slight build, then he will be skillful, and I must attack with power. In this way, I overcome the weak with strength and the mighty with cleverness. Regardless of size, if my opponent adopts high postures, then I must make use of low postures; if he adopts low postures, then I make use of high ones. This is the method of high and low, yin and yang."

.Obedience, drunk people still can have some kind of understanding in 'good manners', 'respect' & 'politeness'. You just have to persuade them in using it, maybe even if they have a black out it might still be possible to talk somekind of sense into them and calm them down. The quality of life is worthy of honor & respect, even when drunk.
