Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “It is a principle of the art of war that one should simply lay down his life and strike. If one’s opponent also does the same, it is a even match. Defeating one’s opponent is then a matter of faith and destiny.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “There is something to be learned from a rainstorm. When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road.

This understanding extends to all things.”

Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “The saying ‘the arts aid the body’ is for samurai of other regions. For samurai of the Nabeshima clan the arts bring ruin to the body.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily. Every day when one’s body and mind are at peace, one should meditate upon being ripped apart by arrows, rifles, spears and swords, being carried away by surging waves, being thrown into the midst of a great fire, being struck by lightning, being shaken to death by a great earthquake, falling from thousand-foot cliffs, dying of disease or committing seppuku at the death of one’s master. And every day without fail one should consider himself as dead.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Do not rely on following the degree of understanding that you have discovered, but simply think, “This is not enough.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “One should be wary of talking on end about such subjects as learning, morality or folklore in front of elders or people of rank. It is disagreeable to listen to.”

Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “If one is but secure at the foundation, he will not be pained by departure from minor details or affairs that are contrary to expectation. But in the end, the details of a matter are important. The right and wrong of one’s way of doing things are found in trivial matters.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “If one does not get it into his head from the very beginning that the world is full of unseemly situations, for the most part his demeanour will be poor and he will not be believed by others.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Victory and defeat are matters of the temporary force of circumstances. The way of avoiding shame is different. It is simply in death.”

Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “At times because of one man’s evil, ten thousand people suffer. So you kill that one man to let the tens of thousands live. Here, truly, the blade that deals death becomes the sword that saves lives.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Even if it seems certain that you will lose, retaliate.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Learning is a good thing, but more often it leads to mistakes. It is like the admonition of the priest Konan. It is worthwhile just looking at the deeds of accomplished persons for the purpose of knowing our own insufficiencies. But often this does not happen. For the most part, we admire our own opinions and become fond of arguing.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “In the highest level a man has the look of knowing nothing .”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “It is bad when one thing becomes two. One should not look for anything else in the Way of the Samurai. It is the same for anything that is called a Way. Therefore, it is inconsistent to hear something of the Way of Confucius or the Way of the Buddha, and say that this is the Way of the Samurai. If one understands things in this manner, he should be able to hear about all Ways and be more and more in accord with his own.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “It is not sufficient just to remain calm in the event of catastrophe or emergency. When challenged by adversity, charge onwards with courage and jubilation. This is rising to a higher level. It is like the saying, “The more water there is, the higher the boat rises.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “It is said that what is called “the spirit of an age” is something to which one cannot return. That this spirit gradually dissipates is due to the world’s coming to an end. For this reason, although one would like to change today’s world back to the spirit of one hundred years or more ago, it cannot be done. Thus it is important to make the best out of every generation.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Imitating another style is simply a sham.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “In offering one’s opinion, one must first ascertain whether or not the recipient is in the right frame of mind to receive counsel.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “If one is secure at the foundation, he will not be pained by departure from minor details or affairs that are contrary to expectation.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Human life is truly a short affair. It is better to live doing the things that you like. It is foolish to live within this dream of a world seeing unpleasantness and doing only things that you do not like.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Depending on one’s point of view, Hagakure represents a mystical beauty intrinsic to the Japanese aesthetic experience, and a stoic but profound appreciation of the meaning of life and death.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “The condition of a person is revealed by his dreams. It would be good to make companions of your dreams and to put forth effort.”

Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Personally, I like to sleep. And I intend to appropriately confine myself more and more to my living quarters and pass my life away sleeping.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “If one has no earnest daily intention, does not consider what it is to be a warrior even in his dreams, and lives through the day idly, he can be said to be worthy of punishment.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “It is bad to carry even a good thing too far. Even concerning things such as Buddhism, Buddhist sermons, and moral lessons, talking too much will bring harm.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Living without mistakes is truly impossible. But this is something that people who live by cleverness have no inclination to think about.”

Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “To think that being righteous is the best one can do and to do one’s utmost to be righteous will, on the contrary, bring many mistakes. The Way is in a higher place than righteousness. This is very difficult to discover, but it is the highest wisdom. When seen from this standpoint, things like righteousness are rather shallow. If one does not understand this on his own, it cannot be known.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Although this may be a most difficult thing, if one will do it, it can be done. There is nothing that one should suppose cannot be done.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “Feeling deeply the difference between oneself and others, bearing ill will, and falling out with people – these things come from a heart that lacks compassion. If one wraps up everything with a heart of compasion, there will be no coming into conflict with people.”
Yamamoto Tsunetomo Quote: “La negligencia es algo extremo.”
