The first A.I. translation of Miyamoto Musashi's "Dokkodo"

  1. "In life, things are like the story of Saiou's horse."
  2. "Without setting goals, nothing can be achieved."
  3. "Those who deviate from the path of humanity will bring shame upon themselves that lasts a hundred years in a single day."
  4. "Those who discipline themselves will be able to discipline the world."
  5. "Never forget the heart."
  6. "Control yourself with utmost restraint, as if taming a wild horse, and refine your being."
  7. "The path lies before you, simply move forward."
  8. "Sorrow and anger are natural occurrences. It is best to simply accept and endure them as they come."
  9. "Do not neglect enjoyment. Life without enjoyment is merely existence."
  10. "Never trouble others, and never blame others for your own misfortunes."
  11. "Reject evil and believe in goodness. If you hold to this for yourself and others, the path will open up."
  12. "Be grateful for all things, even the small things, and continue to show gratitude for as long as you live."
  13. "Living for oneself is the root of all suffering."
  14. "Great individuals never blame themselves or others at any time."
  15. "Use any means necessary to reach your desired destination, but never harm others in the process."
  16. "Do not speak needlessly. Words are not meant to please others, but to express the truth."
  17. "The most important thing in life is to have a heart of 'ichi-go ichi-e' - treating every encounter as if it were once in a lifetime."
  18. "Strength, beauty, talent, wealth - these values are shackles that bind people. To live freely, one must discard these restraints."
  19. "Ignorance is not shameful. It only becomes shameful when one remains ignorant despite having the means to learn."
  20. "When the end comes, live with all your might so that there are no regrets."
  21. "Always stay on the path of martial arts."
