There is surely nothing other than the single purpose of the present moment. A man's whole life is a succession of moment after moment. There will be nothing else to do, and nothing else to pursue. Live being true to the single purpose of the moment.
Yamamoto TsunetomoTo desire with oneโs very soul every second of every day to accomplish oneโs aim.
Yamamoto TsunetomoYou cannot tell whether a person is good or bad by his vicissitudes in life. Good and bad fortune are matters of fate.
