- “You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Be water, my friend.”

- “I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.”


- “Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.”


- “Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.”


- “Don’t fear failure. Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.”

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”


- “A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.”


- “Mistakes are always forgivable if one has the courage to admit them.”


- “If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.”


 “The great mistake is to anticipate the outcome of the engagement; you ought not to be thinking of whether it ends in victory or defeat. Let nature take its course, and your tools will strike at the right moment.”

- “It is not a shame to be knocked down by other people. The important thing is to ask when you’re being knocked down, ‘Why am I being knocked down?’ If a person can reflect in this way, then there is hope for this person.”


- “Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”


- “Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning, a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature, and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.”


- “Self-knowledge involves relationship. To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person. Relationship is a process of self-evaluation and self-revelation. Relationship is a mirror in which you discover yourself – to be is to be related.”


- “Do not be tense, just be ready, not thinking but not dreaming, not being set but being flexible. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware, and alert, ready for whatever may come.”


- “To spend time is to pass it in a specified manner. To waste time is to expend it thoughtlessly or carelessly. We all have time to either spend or waste, and it is our decision what to do with it. But once passed, it is gone forever.”


- “Everything you do, if not in a relaxed state will be done at a lesser level than you are proficient. Thus, the tensed expert marksman will aim at a level less than his/her student.”



If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.
Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.
Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.
Defeat is a state of mind, No one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality.
