“In the end, one must paddle their own canoe and exercise their own judgements. Blind obedience is an appetizing candy, but ultimately leaves one unnourished. If you are to find your own way, you must believe in yourself and exercise your own judgements. Listen to your heart, exercise compassion, give more than you take, never give up. It is my passionate belief that the things we attain in this life are in direct proportion to the things we give." (Preface to "Hapkido: Traditions, Philosophy, Technique")”
