I have always liked two.

"Bleeding?........ I ain't got time to bleed" from an Arnie film, Predator.

and

" I told you I was ill" Spike Milligans choice of words for his own headstone (tombstone)

3 instructive quotes:
For the timid and over apologetic kenshi:

"Show less concern for those you're trying to kill"

Two for those not willing to pay the price of improvement:

"A little pain never hurt anyone"
"Pain is just a little slice of kendo taken out of context"

I leave it to you to decide if pain is mental/emotional, physical or both.

"Bleeding?........ I ain't got time to bleed" from an Arnie film, Predator.

"If we don't leave now... there will be no one to go back to the choppah!"

Ancient Chinese strategy (maybe Sun Tzu), so eloquently translated it's worthy of being quoted;

"Toss out a brick to attract Jade" ~ Not sure

A great strategy and a nice quote in my book!

[shieclulaweew]

In FT Magazine by David Mitchell during the interview by David Pilling.
"To be able to live anywhere makes it harder to decide where you actually want to be"
I know he meant what he says but to me it also relates to anything. I remember when all I knew was Men - That's all I had to do :-)

Cheers!

See my sig. I love Latin... Especially Seneca and Cicero.
Cicero:
Live as brave men; and if fortune is adverse, front its blows with brave hearts.

Other nice ones, excuse the double post:

If you aspire to the highest place, it is no disgrace to stop at the second, or even the third, place.
