"Why study martial arts? A true martial artist does not train only to defeat others. He trains also to defeat the enemies inside himself, the enemies we all have. He trains to forge his life into something beautiful, something helpful to the world. He wishes not to draw a sword, but to put it away - once and for all.
He can do this because, through his training, peace is not just a word or an idea to him. Strength, bravery, compassion: these are not just words to him. They are things he has embodied. They are what he has become."
- Tenzan Toyoda Sensei (1947-2001)
