You have to walk and believe that you can find the light.

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.

Are we friends? or are we foes? ... That kind of thing... You decide... For yourselves!!!

It is a hard and nice subject for a man to speak of himself: it grates his own heart to say anything of disparagement, and the reader's ear to hear anything of praise from him.

Anyone with an Internet service provider can be a pundit or whatever they want.

It's the same in real life: Notorious murderers get off scot-free and live happily all their lives, while good people die - sometimes the very best people. That's the way of the world.

A lighthouse doesn't save the ships; it doesn't go out and rescue them, it's just this pillar that helps to guide people home.

People have the right to come and choose their own political solutions.

A thinking partner who isn't an echo chamber... How many of us dare to have such collaborators?

I'm inspired by good work. Whether it is a great performance by another actor, a piece of art, or someone doing something altruistic.

Cities force growth and make people talkative and entertaining, but they also make them artificial.

Harsh necessity, and the newness of my kingdom, force me to do such things and to guard my frontiers everywhere.
