White pudding and eggs and sausages and cups of tea! How simple and beautiful was life after all!
Seek perfection of character. Be faithful. Endeavor. Respect others. Refrain from violent behaviour.
The ultimate aim of Karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of the character of its participants.
What you have been taught by listening to others' words you will forget very quickly; what you have learned with your whole body you will remember for the rest of your life.
Only through training will a person learn his own weaknesses. . . He who is aware of his weaknesses will remain master of himself in any situation.
One whose spirit and mental strength have been strengthened by sparring with a never-say-die attitude should find no challenge too great to handle. One who has undergone long years of physical pain and mental agony to learn one punch, one kick, should be able to face any task, no matter how difficult, and carry it through to the end. A person like this can truly be said to have learned karate.
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.
Our minds possess by nature an insatiable desire to know the truth.

I won't read scripts because I have a limited amount of time. Why should I help other people do lame stuff when I can just go out and put on lame stuff of my own?
