“Merely observing the words written here does not lead one onto the path of martial arts; one must internalize them to truly understand. It’s not about mimicking what’s barely understood, but rather, with the full force of one’s heart, discovering it as if for oneself, and then to possess it forever.“
(Miyamoto Musashi)
