“ It’s not the number of men, but the quality of men.”
“ A samurai must be prepared for death.” “ In the end, we are all just human.” “ The strong protect the weak.” “ To be a samurai is to be a man of honor.” “ We are all human.” “ The greatest victory is that which requires no battle.” “ The strong must protect the weak.” “ We are all just human beings.” “ The true warrior fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.” “ In the end, we are all just a bunch of fools.” “ A samurai must remain calm at all times, even in the face of danger.” “ The battle is not won by the strongest, but by the one who is most prepared.” “ The strong man is the one who is able to intercept at will the communication between the senses and the mind.” “ A samurai’s life is one of sacrifice.” “ A warrior is not a soldier.” “ It’s not the strong who survive, but the ones who are able to adapt.” |
