A man who understands decorum and the courtesies is a great treasure; I hope to train and send into society as many such men as I can.

I have not permitted myself to be ignorant of any martial art that exists. Why? Such ignorance is a disgrace to someone who follows the path of the martial arts.

Come ye trials and challanges; come life's big waves, for I am ready?

It is possible for even the smallest of accolades of achievement to be truly worthwhile without tears and toil?

In the martial arts, introspection begets wisdom. Always see contemplation on your actions as an opportunity to improve.

No matter how strong the rival, the just will always win.

True courage is born only when it is accompanied by justice.
