As the old saying goes: "A good king never seeks war, but he is always prepared for it."

This quote is often attributed to: Bruce Lee, Miyamoto Musashi, Sun Tzu, a random unarmed samurai, etc etc. The precise origin may never be known- and the fact Bruce Lee May have said it doesn’t mean he wasn’t quoting something he read or been taught- so Lee May have said this to a student. The fact is that fewer people are alive today that actually knew Lee. If you let him at 20 you’d be in your 60’s at least. Add that the “master enlightening a student” and the often famous or un named master quoted changes with the telling, and the fact that we are being told vaguely that Lee said this to an unarmed student- no citation of who the student was or who witnessed the event... casts some doubt as to the attribution. It’s still a somewhat clever phrase of course- and Lee may have said it or not-

But celebrities like Bruce Lee or Albert Einstein et.al are often held up as saying just about whatever someone wants to put in their mouth to either lend weight to the quote and/or the authority behind it, or because they think it would be nest for that person to say it- or whatever. So did Lee say this? Maybe. But I have never found a source that confirms with any credibility that this occurred.

What do you mean by unarmed. Cuz I’m unarmed right now I’m unarmed by default.

Lol. Sorry. I just edited it. It was supposed to say: “un named master” not “unarmed master.” Auto correct.

Sitting by the window, watching people getting rained on is better than garden warriors or warrior gardeners

Gardeners are most needed after a great war, so they should stay out of shit.
