A comprehensive collection of quotes and wisdom from Miyamoto Musashi, a renowned Japanese swordsman who lived from 1584 to 1645. Known for engaging in over 60 duels—the most ever recorded—Musashi left behind a lasting legacy in martial arts and strategy.

His most famous works include The Book of Five Rings, a guide on combat, strategy, and philosophy, and Dokkōdō (or The Path of Aloneness), which he wrote a week before his death in 1645. Dokkōdō outlines 21 core principles for self-discipline and personal growth, while his broader teachings include 101 guiding principles that reflect his deep understanding of life, war, and mastery.

"Preoccupied with a single leaf, you won't see the tree.

Preoccupied with a single tree, you'll miss the entire forest.

Don't be preoccupied with a single spot. See everything in its entirety. Effortlessly. That is what it means to truly see." – Miyamoto Musashi
