You must understand that there is more than one path to the top of the mountain

Cutting down the enemy is the way of strategy, and there is no need for many refinements of it.

A warrior has no confusion in his mind...This is true emptiness.

You may abandon your own body but you must preserve your honour.

Even if you strive diligently on your chosen path day after day, if your heart is not in accord with it, then even if you think you are on a good path, from the point of view of the straight and true, this is not a genuine path. If you do not pursue a genuine path to its consummation, then a little bit of crookedness in the mind will later turn into a major warp. Reflect on this.
