Additional quotes by Miyamoto Musashi
If you master the principles of sword-fencing, when you freely beat one man, you beat any man in the world. The spirit of defeating a man is the same for ten million men. The strategist makes small things into big things, like building a great Buddha from a one foot model. I cannot write in detail how this is done. The principle of strategy is having one thing, to know ten thousand things.

En la práctica de cada forma de vida y de cualquier trabajo, existe un estado de mente del que se dice que está desviado. Aunque os esforcéis diligentemente en vuestro propio camino día tras día, si vuestro corazón no está de acuerdo con él, aunque penséis que estáis en el buen camino, desde el punto de vista de la justicia y de la verdad, no es un auténtico camino. Si no seguís un auténtico camino hasta el final, una pequeña maldad al principio se convierte en una gran perversión. Reflexionad sobre esto.
