Katana Quotes

“There can be different types of bonds in life, with different people. But, no bond is less important than the other. And no matter you may not have a certain kind of bond other people have, you can have other types of bonds those people cannot have.

And there's more to it – when you don't have a certain type of needful bond, the other bonds you have formed with different people, all of them double (it is like, when one is born blind, their other four senses are doubled).

So, I know it is hard, but you must not grieve over what you do not have. Instead, try to embrace what you already have.

Do not feel alone or lost. What you are lacking, is added to other types of relationships, and of course, it may not feel the same way as it would if you had a certain bond, but it is not gone, it is still there, only, in another form...

Preserve your bonds and fight to protect them – that is the path of a Blade Warrior...”

“Know your times and its designs. Swordplay is exacting. Thrus, be shrewd with your jianqizhe “swordpraying.” A lot is needed.”

“There's enough irony in my situation that a skilled blacksmith could turn it into a katana.”
― Charles Stross, Escape from Yokai Land

“Herkes Samuray olmak isterdi ama bu o kadar kolay bir iş değildi. Yıllarca ağır eğitimlerden geçmek gerekirdi. Üstelik sadece katana, ok, mızrak gibi savaş aletlerini çok iyi kullanmak ve iyi dövüşmek de yeterli değildi. Bir Samuray olabilmek için aynı zamanda edebiyat, müzik, şiir, resim, gibi sanat dallarında da ustalaşmak gerekirdi.”

“Savaşçının gözleri sadece savaş, kan ve zaferden başka bir şey görmezse; kılıcı da kimi, neyi, neden keseceğini bilmez. Bunu bilmek, vicdan ister. Vicdanı besleyip büyüten de sanattır. İşte bu yüzden Samuraylar, savaşmakla meşgul oldukları kadar sanatla da meşgul olmak zorundadırlar.”
