Believe me that in every big thing or achievement there are always obstacles-big or small- and the reaction one shows to such obstacles is what counts, not the obstacle itself.

Knowledge earns you power, character earns you respect.

Ideas are the beginning of all achievement.

Do not like, do not dislike; all will then be clear. Make a hairbreadth difference and heaven and earth are set apart.

As you think, you shall become

A good martial artist does not become tense, but ready. Not thinking, yet not dreaming. Ready for whatever may come. When the opponent expands, I contract; and when he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, "I" do not hit, "it" hits all by itself.

'What is' is more important than 'what should be.' Too many people are looking at 'what is' from a position of thinking 'what should be'.
