Beautiful quote. Reminds me of a scene in the documentary
jiu-jitsu vs the world:
Renzo Gracie:
"I asked my dad: 'Why do I have to train so much? I train twice a day. I train
in the morning. I train at night. Every weekend, I go train.' He goes 'My son,
you train if one day someone tries to bully you, someone not letting you express
your idea, don't let you be yourself, you are gonna be able to defend yourself.
Or maybe if you become a prick. You become a villain, and you want to oppress
someone, you want to bully people, you want to be a jerk, you want to make sure
you know jiu-jitsu so that they won't be able to defend themselves. Or they
won't be able to be rebellious. Now you choose who you want to be. You want to
be the nice guy or you want to be the bully. It's gonna be up to you but
jiu-jitsu is gonna help you either way.'"
