More quotes by Miyamoto Musashi
Respect the gods and buddhas, but never rely on them.
Miyamoto Musashi
Thirdly, the gentleman warrior, carrying the weaponry of his way. The way of the warrior is to master the virtue of his weapons. If a gentleman dislikes strategy he will not appreciate the benefit of weaponry, so must he not have a little taste for this?
Miyamoto Musashi
Do not regret what you have done
Miyamoto Musashi
There is timing in everything. Timing in strategy cannot be mastered without a great deal of practice.
Miyamoto Musashi
If you are not progressing along the true way, a slight twist in the mind can become a major twist. This must be pondered well.
Miyamoto Musashi
In battle, if you you make your opponent flinch, you have already won.
Miyamoto Musashi
Unless you really understand others, you can hardly attain your own self-understanding.
Miyamoto Musashi
A bullet from a gun does not make a distinction between practice and combat. You are training to be one and the same way in your life
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
Pay attention even to life's trifles.
Miyamoto Musashi
Do not let the body be dragged along by mind nor the mind be dragged along by the body
Miyamoto Musashi
If you know the way broadly you will see it in everything.
Miyamoto Musashi
A warrior has no confusion in his mind...This is true emptiness.
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
To become the enemy, see yourself as the enemy of the enemy
Miyamoto Musashi
This is truth: When you sacrifice your life, you must make fullest use of your weaponry. It is false not to do so, and to die with a weapon as yet undrawn.
Miyamoto Musashi
As if with the nut and flower, the nut has become less than the flower... both those teaching and those learning are concerned with colouring and showing off their technique, trying to hasten the bloom of the flower.
Miyamoto Musashi
It is said the warrior's is the twofold Way of pen and sword, and he should have a taste for both Ways. Even if a man has no natural ability he can be a warrior by sticking assiduously to both divisions of the Way.
Miyamoto Musashi
Approach the enemy with the attitude of defeating him without delay.
Miyamoto Musashi
Do nothing which is of no use.
Miyamoto Musashi
