Do all the work you can; that is the whole philosophy of the good way of life Picture Quote #1

You can’t do without philosophy, since everything has its hidden meaning which we must know Picture Quote #1

My philosophy is very simple. To feel young, you must work as long as you can Picture Quote #1

My philosophy is to do the best you can for somebody. Help. It’s not just what do you for yourself. It’s how you treat people decently. The golden rule. There isn’t big anything better than the golden rule. It’s in every major religion in one language or another Picture Quote #1

I have a very simple philosophy of life: Kindness. Ferocious, unrelenting, ruthless, committed, passionate, kindness. Life is sacred everywhere. We all have better things to do than beat each other up. Arguing for the exception is to invest it with energy, it’s to negotiate the loophole. The commitment to kindness must be total Picture Quote #1

Hey, you wanna hear my philosophy of life? Do it to him before he does it to you Picture Quote #1

People study martial arts for many reasons, sometimes all the wrong reasons. For example, I have had potential students come to my dojo with a belligerent and cocky attitude. When I ask why they want to study my art, their response has indicated to me that their goal is to learn to fight, which is the antithesis of the philosophy I hope to instill: I want them to know how to defend themselves if necessary, but to avoid fighting whenever possible because they will have nothing to prove by fighting Picture Quote #1

My view is that if your philosophy is not unsettled daily then you are blind to all the universe has to offer Picture Quote #1

For life is an expression, our unconscious actions the constant betrayal of our innermost thought. Perhaps we reveal ourselves too much in small things because we have so little of the great to conceal. The tiny incidents of daily rouitine are as much a commentary of racial ideas as the highest flight of philosophy or poetry Picture Quote #1

As you know, shibumi has to do with great refinement underlying commonplace appearances. It is a statement so correct that it does not have to be bold, so poignant it does not have to be pretty, so true it does not have to be real. Shibumi is understanding, rather than knowledge. Eloquent silence. In demeanor, it is modesty without pudency. In art, where the spirit of shibumi takes the form of sabi, it is elegant simplicity, articulate brevity. In philosophy, where shibumi emerges as wabi, it is spiritual tranquility that is not passive; it is being without the angst of becoming Picture Quote #1

My philosophy of life can be summed up in four words: It can’t be helped Picture Quote #1
