Top 10 Best Quotes
“Average man is arrogant, because he is ever impressed by reason and always bows his head to it. Reason makes us believe that our challenges in life are to be avoided at all costs. This is to be a coward who does not have the self-respect needed in order to honour the marvellous gift of life.”
“The warrior lives by challenge; therefore his life is a disciplined strategy.”
“Denial is the worst form of self-indulgence. A warrior sees his faults as being his passage to power.”
“When the warrior fails in any one particular pursuit of knowledge he is not defeated, because in walking the path of knowledge we fight many battles – some we win, some we lose. Success lies not in how many battles we have won, but in how well we have fought.”
“Warriors win battles, not by ignoring them, but through clarity.”
“The only failure in life is the failure to fight.”
“No man is born a warrior, nor is he born a reasoning being – we choose to become either one or the other. In order to become a warrior, one must be prepared to take one’s chances and fight for one’s freedom. There is no other way. One cannot become a warrior simply by wishing to do so. To become a warrior is the struggle of a lifetime.”
“No man can survive the path of knowledge if he is not prepared to embrace death. Death is a warrior’s best advisor.”
“Man’s only justification for physical existence is to learn; this is his destiny which he cannot avoid under any circumstances.”
“Knowledge is ever greater and more powerful than man. To walk the path of knowledge is to fight for survival; therefore if you come to this path to learn, then you must be prepared to fight as if your life depends upon it.”
