Additional quotes by Miyamoto Musashi

So-called “Yin-Yang foot” is important in the Way. Yin-Yang foot means not moving only one foot. It means moving your feet left-right and right-left when cutting, withdrawing, or warding off a cut. You should not move on one foot preferentially.

"Cuando estáis combatiendo contra los enemigos, si tenéis la sensación de estar estancados y de no hacer ningún progreso, abandonad vuestro estado de ánimo y pensad en vuestro corazón que estáis empezando algo nuevo. Cuando conseguís el ritmo, ya sabéis cómo ganar. Esto es "renovarse"."
