It is said the warrior's is the twofold Way of pen and sword, and he should have a taste for both Ways. Even if a man has no natural ability he can be a warrior by sticking assiduously to both divisions of the Way.

Fixation is the way to death. Fluidity is the way to life.

Truth is not what you want it to be; it is what it is, and you must bend to its power or live a lie.

In the void is virtue, and no evil. Wisdom has existence, principle has existence, the Way has existence, spirit is nothingness.

Never depart from the way of martial arts.

Never stray from the Way.

The true science of martial arts means practicing them in such a way that they will be useful at any time, and to teach them in such a way that they will be useful in all things.
