Always remain a student and will never stop learning.

Don’t focus only on developing a strong body as muscles fade with age, develop an iron-like will and this will last forever.

Be strong in winter and you will be even stronger in summer.

Like iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.

Good technique + Good character = Good Karateka.

One minute is not a long time, but don’t waste it as once it has past you can never change it.

Be a leader, not a follower.

It’s okay to fall over seven times as long as you stand up eight times.

The difference between a Master and a Novice is, a Novice thinks it’s easy and performs it clumsily – a Master understands the complexity and only makes it look easy.

Don’t think of winning, rather think of how not to lose.
