Give me a sword fight any day.

I throw a spear into the darkness. That is intuition. Then I must send an army into the darkness to find the spear. That is intellect.

You hesitate to stab me with a word, and know not - silence is the sharper sword.

Remember that when you meet your antagonist, to do everything in a mild agreeable manner. Let your courage be keen, but, at the same time, as polished as your sword.

To leave home, it's got to be worth leaving.

Doing the sword fighting is like picking up a dance routine... I think dancing really helps with the picking up of it.

From time to time, I need a rest from the exercitation of my intellect.

You can't be a conqueror in your own home.
