“Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain.

Do not be concerned with escaping safely- lay your life before him!!”

“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.”
