Miyamoto Musashi
Fixation is the way to death. Fluidity is the way to life.
Miyamoto Musashi
from one thing, know ten thousand things
Miyamoto Musashi
The only reason a warrior is alive is to fight, and the only reason a warrior fights is to win
Miyamoto Musashi
To cut and slash are two different things. Cutting, whatever form of cutting it is, is decisive, with a resolute spirit. Slashing is nothing more than touching the enemy.
Miyamoto Musashi

Miyamoto Musashi
If you do not look at things on a large scale, it will be difficult to master strategy.
Miyamoto Musashi
If you know the way broadly you will see it in everything.
Miyamoto Musashi
Whatever the Way, the master of strategy does not appear fast.
Miyamoto Musashi
From inside fortifications, the gun has no equal among weapons. It is the supreme weapon on the field before the ranks clash, but once swords are crossed the gun becomes useless.
Miyamoto Musashi
Determine that today you will overcome your self of the day before, tomorrow you will win over those of lesser skill, and later you will win over those of greater skill.
Miyamoto Musashi
When you attack the enemy, your spirit must go to the extent of pulling the stakes out of a wall and using them as spears and halberds.
Miyamoto Musashi
A warrior has no confusion in his mind...This is true emptiness.
Miyamoto Musashi
Consider yourself lightly consider the world deeply.
Miyamoto Musashi
Do nothing which is of no use.
Miyamoto Musashi
The warrior is different in that studying the Way of strategy is based on overcoming men
Miyamoto Musashi
The Way of the warrior does not include other ways, such as Confucianism, Buddhism, certain traditions, artistic accomplishments, and dancing. But even though these are not part of the Way, if you know the Way broadly, you will see it in everything.
Miyamoto Musashi
Know your enemy, know his sword.
Miyamoto Musashi
You can only fight the way you practice
Miyamoto Musashi
