MorphRC Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 [b]Hagakure, 'In the shadow of Leaves' - Yamamoto Tsunetomo, 17th Century[/b] To give a person one's opinion and correct his fault is an important thing. It is compassionate and comes first in matters of service.[b][1][/b] It is not good to settle into a set of opinions. It is a mistake to put forth effort and obtain some understanding and then stop at that. [...] Do not rely on following the degree of understanding that you have discovered, but simply think, "This is not enough."[b][2][/b] When an official place is extremely busy and someone comes in thoughtlessly with some business or other, often there are people who will treat him coldly and become angry. This is not good at all. At such times, the etiquette of a Samurai is to calm himself and deal with the person in a good manner. To treat a person harshly is the way of middle class lackeys.[b][3][/b] [b][1][/b]-[b]Source:[/b]Pg. 21, Hagakure, 'In the Shadow of Leaves,' Yamamoto Tsuenetomo 1700, Translated by William Scott Wilson.
