Only a true weakling is capable of true courage.

True karate is this: that in daily life one's mind and body be trained and developed in a spirit of humility, and that in critical times, one be devoted utterly to the cause of justice.

To practice kata is not to memorize an order. Find the katas that work for you, understand them, digest them & stick with them for life.

One of the most striking features of karate is that it may be engaged in by anybody, young or old, strong or weak, male or female.

The ultimate aim of Karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of the character of its participants.

Always be ready to release your mind.

Karate is a defensive art from beginning to end.
