It's not important how long you live, but how long you live with dignity

Reading the words of a well-known Japanese poet and writer made me think deeply. This is about the relationship between art and life.
He stated that those who, for one reason or another, live a life of a fighter, experience brutality, exercise violence because it's necessary and risk it for something, desire and produce a calm and serene art. A quiet art.
If I have to look at some of my old youthful works I realize how turbulent and destabilizing they were. I myself have often described them as a "brutal boulder". I was happy with my art, without realizing how monotonous my life was after all. Lively only on the surface, but in reality simple, and often devoid of sacrifice and struggle.
So I realized how right he was.
Those who fight and risk themselves don't need turbulent and aggressive art, because they live it every day.

To progress, be determined and solid in life you must be largely convinced of your ideas and positions, even if you have understood the possibility that your ideas and positions could be in one way or another, in one dimension or in the other, partially or totally incorrect

"I attempt to flee - but I cannot - from this grey, sleepless nightmare, from this pale city where men are nameless because they cannot speak, where they gesture at each other and trail old robes naturally woven with threads of diaphanous clouds. I attempt to hail - but I cannot - these passing companions who have the invisible softness of old silk and who reach out to me through the grey mist; these phantoms, whether men or shadows, with the slow strides of philosophical cranes.
[...]
But when the nightmare has flattened me like a sheet of paper, I suddenly escape from this vision. Following three deafening gunshots that rip the sky's solitary streets to shreds, I discover clouds emanating like perfume from my cruel passionate dream."

If you can accept this, accept this. If you can't accept this, fight this. If you can't fight this, leave this

An old saying: don't spend anything except on weapons.

If you want to test how strong your mind is, imagine yourself without eyes, legs and arms. Imagine undergoing the maximum amount of suffering. This should leave you unperturbed. It's a tough challenge even for the strongest and most solid of warriors.

If you find yourself in a situation where you have a 50/50 chance of living and a 50/50 chance of dying, you should choose death without hesitation. The way of the samurai is death.

Two concepts need to be distinguished.
The first is when you are right, you are extremely convinced of it, to the point of hurting others. This is the error in certainty.
The second is when you see a person in difficulty, you turn to him, without thinking of the countless mistakes he may have made. This is certainty in error.
