More quotes by Miyamoto Musashi
Do not sleep under a roof. Carry no money or food. Go alone to places frightening to the common brand of men. Become a criminal of purpose. Be put in jail, and extricate yourself by your own wisdom.
Miyamoto Musashi

Miyamoto Musashi

Miyamoto Musashi
Study strategy over the years and achieve the spirit of the warrior. Today is victory over yourself of yesterday tomorrow is your victory over lesser men.
Miyamoto Musashi
Fixation is the way to death. Fluidity is the way to life.
Miyamoto Musashi
If the enemy thinks of the mountains, attack like the sea and if he thinks of the sea, attack like the mountains.
Miyamoto Musashi
When your opponent is hurrying recklessly, you must act contrarily and keep calm. You must not be influenced by the opponent.
Miyamoto Musashi
If the enemy stays spirited it is difficult to crush him.
Miyamoto Musashi
The purpose of today's training is to defeat yesterday's understanding.
Miyamoto Musashi
If you know the way broadly you will see it in everything.
Miyamoto Musashi
In battle, if you you make your opponent flinch, you have already won.
