Reality is what kicks back when you kick it. This is just what physicists do with their particle accelerators. We kick reality and feel it kick back.

Patrick Ewing

If you stick a knife nine inches into my back and pull it out three inches, that is not progress.

Malcolm X

Before I studied the art, a punch to me was just like a punch, a kick just like a kick. After I learned the art, a punch was no longer a punch, a kick no longer a kick. Now that I've understood the art, a punch is just like a punch, a kick just like a kick. The height of cultivation is really nothing special. It is merely simplicity; the ability to express the utmost with the minimum.
