The way is in training.

Never stray from the Way.

Do nothing which is of no use.

Know your enemy, know his sword.

Do not regret what you have done

Become acquainted with every art.

I dreamt of worldly success once.

Too much is the same as not enough.

Accept everything just the way it is.

Pay attention even to life's trifles.

Strategy is the craft of the warrior.

You can only fight the way you practice

Do not act following customary beliefs.

Do not let your opponent see your spirit

from one thing, know ten thousand things

Fixed formation is bad. Study this well.

Immature strategy is the cause of grief.

Step by step walk the thousand-mile road.

As far as Im concerned, I regret nothing.

Never depart from the way of martial arts.

No Fear, No Hesitation, No Surprise, No Doubt

Perceive that which cannot be seen with the eye.

Think lightly of yourself and deeply of the world

One must make the warrior walk his everyday walk.

Get beyond love and grief: exist for the good of Man.

Consider yourself lightly; consider the world deeply.

Respect the gods and buddhas, but never rely on them.

If the enemy stays spirited it is difficult to crush him.

Fixation is the way to death. Fluidity is the way to life.

True warriors are fierce because their training is fierce.

The ultimate aim of martial arts is not having to use them

Even if a man has no natural ability, he can be a warrior.

If you know the way broadly you will see it in everything.

Respect Buddha and the gods without counting on their help

The Way is in training... Do nothing which is not of value.

If you do not control the enemy, the enemy will control you

To become the enemy, see yourself as the enemy of the enemy

To win any battle, you must fight as if you are already dead

If you wish to control others you must first control yourself

Develop intuitive judgement and understanding for everything.

Whatever the Way, the master of strategy does not appear fast.

A warrior has no confusion in his mind...This is true emptiness.

You may abandon your own body but you must preserve your honour.

Do not waste time idling or thinking after you have set your goals

Approach the enemy with the attitude of defeating him without delay.

By knowing things that exist, you can know that which does not exist.

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

In battle, if you you make your opponent flinch, you have already won.

It is difficult to understand the universe if you only study one planet

They speak of "This Dojo" and "That Dojo". They are looking for profit.
