What are some Ed Parker quotes that you find helpful in motivating yourself in training or in daily life? I like "He who hesitates meditates in the horizontal position"

I like Ed Parker's Quote about Oganizations
"All good organizations take an occaisional enema if they plan to remain healthy."

Nice! I'll have to remember that one. My fav. is probably the "it's not whose right but whose left..." but since that one's already taken I'll go with "I'd rather have 10 tecniques that fight for me than a hundred that fight against me."Goldendragon7 said:

"Practice doesn't make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect."
I first heard this told to my son during Swim Practice by his swim coach. I later learned that she had been a Kenpo student in High School and that this was Mr. Parker's quote.
