Additional quotes by Miyamoto Musashi

La sabiduría es existencia.
El principio es existencia.
El camino es existencia.
La mente es vacío.

Fragmento de: Miyamoto Musashi. “The Book of Five Rings”. iBooks.

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. … Even if you kill an enemy, if it is not based on what you have learned it is not the true Way.

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.

Truth is not what you want it to be; it is what it is. And you must bend to its power or live a lie. - Miyamoto Musashi
