The main thing Karate offers to me is a philosophy of life. The philosophy of Karate is respect and discipline. You give 100% of whatever you do, in every activity.

If you don't give up, eventually you will break the cycle and you will overcome any obstacle.

Every time you achieve a dream, you must set another one. Because that will strengthen your path. Or you will become dead, because if you have no dreams, you have no life.

I use discipline and focus as my greatest weapons.

The Samurai always has to rise and move on, because new challenges will come.

You can have talent and strength, but the most important is determination.

I try to clear my mind of everything, I try to think of nothing. I just let my body act, the body can take control and do what it's trained to do.

My philosophy is the same as a Samurai: To hit without getting hit.

To be happy is very important to do a great performance because you have to be comfortable; your mind has to be clear.

If you gave up, you've already lost. If you keep going, you get to a new level.

Before a fight I empty my mind. Every fighter is able to lose. It is not a big thing. You have to accept what comes and remain calm.

Revenge is a bad policy if you gain nothing out of it, but under the same circumstances, forgiveness is even a worse one.

Protect us, Golden One. I believe we are all going to need it.

Who elected Larry King America's grief counselor? We, the viewing public, did, by driving up his ratings whenever somebody famous passes.

Everyone feels benevolent if nothing happens to be annoying him at the moment.

He has one of those heads people think about cutting off." “Yes. He does.

Go to your checkbook and see what you spend money on. In an instant, you will know what is important to you because your money goes toward it.

Life was sweet. Even when it was bad, there was always the hope of better...the future.

I wear a baseball cap all the time, which I would never normally wear, and I walk very fast.

Hope comes from love, because people always trust in those they love.
