The Warrior's Ideal:

In the first stage, Man and Sword become One and Each Other.

In the next stage, the Sword resides not in the hand, but in the heart.

The ultimate ideal is when the Sword disappears all together.
The Warrior embraces all around him.
The desire to kill no longer exists, only Peace remains.

The ultimate ideal for the Warrior is Peace.

One person's pain is nothing, when compared to the suffering of all. - Jet Li in "Hero"

The Toast:

Life is a storm.
You will bask in the sunlight one moment,
Be shattered on the rocks the next.

What makes you a Man, is what you do when that storm comes.

You must look into that storm and shout, "Do your worst, for I will do mine!"

Then the Fates will know you as we know you,

As a Man. (from "The Count of Monte Christo", starring Jim Caviezel.)
