Whenever I present myself, day or night, they will always know that I will talk, walk, run, and then fight!
Motto 2
While I yet have the ability to understand my own will and confidence, I will choose to be patient with all, but when in doubt, my courage and confidence shall stand very, very, TALL!
Motto 3
For in my mind there is good stuff in, bad stuff out.
Motto 4
For I am better today than I was yesterday because I will practice, I will practice, and I will practice.
Motto 5
Work hard, never quit, finish strong.
Motto 6
The ultimate aim of Martial Arts is not the victory nor defeat but the perfection of one's character.
Motto 7
I come to you with Karate my empty hands. I have no weapons, so without weapons, if I am forced to defend myself, my principles or my honor, may it be a matter of right or wrong! I may choose to turn my left hand into a fist, my right hand into a sword; so here are my weapons. Karate, the art of the empty hands and feet!
