“You progress not through what has been done, but reaching towards what has yet to be done”.

Khalil Gibran

“There are people who are excitable by nature and allow themselves to become angry for the most trivial of reasons. Judo can help such people learn to control themselves. Through training, they quickly realize that anger is a waste of energy, that it has only negative effects on the self and others”.

Kano Jigoro
