"Always watch simplicity, in ... you want simple movement. You do not want to be in any hurry to be a victor. You'll die quick that way. Watch for the mistakes of your opponent, play along with him. That's how come we have such a thing as ... style, you have a distant space between each other so that you'll not get hit quickly. You'll notice that your opponent, usually, the majority are afraid like you are. Now if you let him know that you're afraid he'll take advantage of you. So do not let him know that you're afraid. [...]
Q: You were talking about the fear part of war. What can you tell us about what you felt either before, during or after?
Fear is something else. If you continually go into engagement you develop courage. That's the way of warriors. [...] I'm brave, I got sharp eyes in the dark because you get adapted to darkness. But after a week or two after the engagement I begin to shake. Even if you have experience in chopping somebody out, if you lay off for a couple of weeks your heart will start pounding again, you begin to feel ’I wonder if I'm going to get hurt this time’.
When war time there is no style needed, as long as you know the ... style and strike direct, because there's no pattern of war..— pattern of fighting in war. They come like a bunch of ants you know, when the Japanese charges ‘Banzai!’ everybody come out at one time so you just keep on chopping.
And... as long as you don't lose your nerves or lose your weapon, break your weapon, keep on going, forget about getting hurt. The more you think about getting hurt the more you get hurt." Leo Giron
"When you take all that away, that's the reality check that they have to go through, all these arts.
Probably the best thing for the ... arts at this point would be to just get rid of all. 95% of this equipment and minimize it either to what we have or less and to say:
’OK. What works?’
And then the truth will be evident. Anybody can sit here and just watch: ‘We've got to work on this’, ‘We've got to work on that’, ‘This is a waste of time’, ‘This is good’, ‘This is bad’. And then there won't be any argument and it'll be very clear what needs to be done next." Eric Knaus

Iti26: This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
"Monks, if beings knew, as I know,
the results of giving & sharing,
they would not eat without having given,
nor would the stain of selfishness overcome their minds.
Even if it were
their last bite,
their last mouthful,
they
would
not
eat
without having shared,
if there were someone to receive their gift."
