Those who are possessed by nothing possess everything.

The Way of a Warrior is to establish harmony.

The real purpose of the martial arts must be to purge oneself of petty ambitions and desire, to obtain control of one’s own character.

Cast off limiting thoughts and return to true emptiness. Stand in the midst of the great void. This is the secret of the Way of a Warrior.

If you are centered, you can move freely.

There are times when you may be overwhelmed by the teachings of the Way. At such moments, it is important to continue with the original spirit of a beginner.

Focus on stillness, rather than on movement

To injure an opponent is to injure yourself. To control aggression without inflicting injury is the Art of Peace.

Those who are enlightened never stop forging themselves.

Those who have a warped mind, a mind of discord, have been defeated from the beginning.

The Art of Peace begins with you.

Progress comes to those who train and train; reliance on secret techniques will get you nowhere.

Life itself is always a trial. In training, you must test and polish yourself in order to face the great challenges of life.

Now and again, it is necessary to seclude yourself among deep mountain and hidden valleys to restore your link to the source of life.

True victory is victory over oneself.

Be grateful even for hardship, setbacks, and bad people. Dealing with such obstacles is an essential part of training in the Art of Peace.

Failure is the key to success; each mistake teaches us something.

Life is growth. If we stop growing, technically and spiritually, we are as good as dead.

A warrior's mission is to foster the success of others.
