Hagakure




I'm reading Hagakure "The book of the Samurai" by Yamamoto Tsunetomo

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagakure


this book is a collection of thoughts and ideals of a samurai

this particular passage pertains to me right now

"in affaires like law suits or even in arguments, by losing quickly one will lose in fine fashion. it is ike Sumo wrestling.
if one thinks only of winning, a sordid victory will be worse that defeat."

READ HAGAKURE!
