Respect should always be offered to the opponent first. Often this can lead an attitude of dis-harmony into a peaceful resolution.

The true martial artist has a caring spirit that sees all as one.

It takes greater courage to lead by truth than to lead with fear and deception.

We are all of this earth, do not fight or lay greed. The earth is plentiful if we can all learn to share it.

To live only in today or the past leaves no room for tomorrow.

Martial Arts should not focus entirely on the destruction of an enemy but in ways it can strive to embrace the enemy.

If you study the martial arts with aggression and malice this will eventually bring you to view the world from a fearful place.
