Quote by Miyamoto Musashi (1584-1645)

• Generally speaking, the Way of the warrior is resolute acceptance of death.

• It may seem difficult at first, but everything is difficult at first.

• Strategy is different from other things in that if your mistake the Way (of strategy), even a little, you will become bewildered and fall into bad ways.

• Do not let the body be dragged along by mind nor the mind be dragged along by the body

• There is timing in the whole life of the warrior, in his thriving and declining, in his harmony and discord. Similarly, there is timing in the Way of the merchant, in the rise and fall of capital. All things entail rising and falling timing. You must be able to discern this.

• I must say, to die with one's sword still sheathed is most regrettable.
