Here's a guide to strategy:
Do not seek the fight; accept it.
Don't get ahead of yourself,
but stay in the center.
Look the foe directly in eye.
Be ready to fight, but not eager.
Do not brandish your weapon like an idiot.
If you find a real foe,
respect him,
know him;
to fight him is to honor him.
And however brutal the battle,
do not forget compassion,
or you will have lost indeed.
