jason77:
"Through action, a Man becomes a Hero... Through death, a Hero becomes a Legend... Through time, a Legend becomes a Myth... And by learning from the Myth, a Man takes action." - Unknown

Thorsteinn:
"If you have confidence in your own words, aspirations, thoughts, and actions and do your very best, you will have no need to regret the outcome of what you do. Fear and trembling are lot of the person who, while stinting effort, hopes that everything will come out precisely as he wants."

"Each of us has his cowardice. Each of us is afraid to lose, afraid to die. But hanging back is the way to remain a coward for life. The Way to find courage is to seek it on the field of conflict. And the sure way to victory is willingness to risk one's own life."

"Studying the martial Way is like climbing a cliff: keep going forward without rest. Resting is not permissible because it causes recessions to old adages of achievement. Persevering day in, day out improves techniques, but resting one day causes lapses. This must be prevented."

"It is possible for even the smallest of accolades of achievement to be truly worthwhile without tears and toil?"

"If I strike hard enough, your entire body is a pressure point."

-Mas Oyama, Founder of Kyokushin Karate
