Watching a Documentary called Samurai on The History Channel2 (H2)

When faced with an enemy with a loose tounge, the #samurai remains calm in the notion that he can cut it out of his mouth.

A #samurai understand the beauty in things that are fleeting, for we all have life and death in common.

A #samurai chooses his words like a warrior chooses a weapon, because he knows that choosing wrong with either could lead to his death.

If you touch a samurai's wazakashi, he will touch you with his katana.

A samurai speaks as if everyone is listening, but acts as if no one is watching.

A samurai is of no mind, but will always act thoughtfully.

The samurai's katanaprotects his life, the wazakashi protects his honor

I samurai seeks 1 of 2 outcomes in his life: Victory, or an honorable death. Defeat or surrender are never options.

A samurai's armor is not made of metal and cloth. It is made of honor, intelligence and ingenuity.

A samurai concentrates on one strike at a time without allowing distractions. This is so he can complete said strike to perfection.

A samurai treats small details as life or death so that larger situations can be treated with little to no worry

A samurai welcomes his own death at every moment. It becomes part of his everyday life, and thus he does not fear it.

Every day I work here I realize how close I am to one...
