There is and there is not by Hartwig HKD | h koppdelaney

Por favor, acepte mi resigns. No me interesa pertenecer ningun the club that quiere tenerme as miembro.
Groucho Marx

una muerte temprana
sents the signs
la voz de la cicada
Matsuo Basho

En línea straight
Camino en el viento
All is desplegará
Ya nothing to fall in mí
Sylosis, Paradox

Los conocía both en la isla de Miranda,
Qué es la juventud un señorío on al mar:
Caliban deform, for it seems that vile,
Y Ariel, orgulloso Prince juglaría,
Quién abandon hizo la puesta sun mi Tower
Y as per una estrella de mi sueño is on top Quemo.
Willa Cather, Paradox

How un Bufón between Bufones. Yo te voy a enseñar all mis
canciones originales, my self-built puzzles, my own
ingenious paradoxes, is, I will reveal
the source where I get them. Ahora, What about you?
Gilbert and Sullivan, The Yeoman of the Guard

Look at the signs that are always there
But you know I never worry
You're always looking for another reason
Hawkwind, Paradox

I'll tell you what justice. Justice is a knee in the stomach of the soil on the chin at night with a knife brought hiding below the compartment of a warship, overlapping sandbags in the dark without a word of warning.
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

There was only one catch and was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's own safety in the face of real dangers and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All I had to do was ask and as soon as I did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he did, but if he was sane, was to fly. If she did, he was crazy and did not have to, but if not wanted, he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle.
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

summer grass
all that remains
dreams of ancient warriors
Matsuo Basho

Are we going to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom only, the moon only when it is clear? No matter how young or strong you are, when death comes sooner than expected.
Kenko, Tsurezuregusa

Mais où sont les neiges d'yesteryear?

Where are the snows of yesteryear?
François Villon, Ballade des dames du temps jadis

Wo sind die Tränen von gestern Abend?
Wo ist der Schnee vom Jahr vergangenen?

Where are the tears of the night before?
Where is the snow of yesteryear?
Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Nannas Lied

Where is my Marlboro man
Where is his shiny gun
Where is my lone explorer
Where have all the cowboys gone
Paula Cole, Where have all the cowboys gone

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
Simon and Garfunkel, Mrs. Robinson

Where are the old Snowden?
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

For this column I have only to leave the way of all citations …

Snowden was an aerial gunner in the novel Catch-22, who was killed in combat. The question accusatory, Where are the old Snowden? is a play on a line from a poem by François Villon called Ballade des dames du temps jadis, Ballad of the ladies of yesteryear. Bertolt Brecht uses the line also. The question, Where are? is a literary motif called Ubi sunt for short. The name comes from the Latin where are those who have gone before us? questions Ubi sunt remind us of the transience of life. Impermanence is a common theme in Zen and Japanese culture.

Aikido is a martial art mystery. It is full of paradoxes. These are a few. If you think of any more, Please add it then.

  • When you try to throw your attacker can not. When you do not try you can do it easily.
  • If you try to win you lose.
  • Soft is strong.
  • The more force miss, more powerful you will.
  • A gentle, good heart can generate powerful, Technical dangerous.
  • The reason to start aikido is not the reason to continue aikido.
  • One of the strengths of Aikido is that there is no competition. And one of the weaknesses of Aikido is that there is no competition. I wrote about the competition aquí.
  • People with small hearts that make aikido to be stronger not be stronger.
  • People who think they are good at aikido generally are not.
  • People who think they understand aikido typically do.
  • People who do not think their surface aikido views on aikido are relevant to the people who actually make aikido. As you can see on the internet.
  • Aikido is pure physics. Aikido is pure philosophy.
  • Sometimes you have to leave everything to catch something.
  • If you're strong enough and safe enough to decide it might be a good idea to learn aikido you probably really do not need. You are capable of dealing with emergencies calmly and efficiently and without hesitation.
  • It is very useful to have studied other martial art before starting aikido. It is a great disadvantage to have studied other martial art before starting aikido.
  • Aikido is a special. You wear special clothing and do it in a special place. Aikido is not a special. It's like breathing or eating or sleeping.
  • By doing aikido correctly feels like nothing. Literally nothing.
