<--- It's right there. Zen in the Martial Arts by Joe Hyams. I take it everywhere. If Luis can have his blanket, then I'm going to have my book. Joe describs spiritual and philosophical lessons he has learn during his study of various martial arts. And also studied under Bruce Lee. And each section ends with a relavent quote. "You and your opponent are one. There is a coexisting relationship between you. You coexist with you opponentand become his complement, absorbing his attack and using his force to overcome him." --Bruce Lee
"To win 100 vicotories in 100 battles is not the highest skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the highest skill." --Sun-Tzu
And what do you do for V-Day?
