Koro Sensei Quotes

“The difference between the novice and the master is that the master has failed more times than the novice has tried.” – Koro Sensei

“Exams are an opportunity to teach correctly the meaning of winning and losing, of strong and weak. Students soak up heaping helpings of successes and setbacks. Take in now what it means to win, what it means to lose!” – Koro Sensei

“Broadly speaking, there are two reasons a person feels the desire to teach something: Either he wants to pass on his successes or he wants to pass on his failures.” – Koro Sensei

“Backup plans are the cornerstone of confidence.” – Koro Sensei

“When backed into a corner, the first order of business is assessing your options.” – Koro Sensei

“Every teacher secretly frets over whether the path he sets his students on is the right one. But he points the way to the best future he can see for them.” – Koro Sensei

“The past you’ve lost will never come back. I myself have made so many mistakes… But we can learn from the past so we don’t repeat it.” – Koro Sensei

“Honestly, there isn’t much meaning to the splendid names given to you by your parents. What does have meaning, is what the person behind that name does during their actual lifetime. The name doesn’t make the person. The name simply remains gently within the footprint left on the path a person walks.” – Koro Sensei

“Please remember that there are times to take someone’s hand and lead them along… But also times when you must be stern and let them fend for themselves.” – Koro Sensei

“If I wasn’t prepared to be flexible as the situations demands, I wouldn’t have become a teacher.” – Koro Sensei

“It’s dangerous for them to grow up without experiencing true competition. Because they’ll keep whining, even without taking the matter seriously. For those with a high level of aptitude… The sooner they know the frustration of defeat, the greater their growth will be.” – Koro Sensei

“You may have grown too strong. Drunk on your own power, you forgot to put yourself in the shoes of someone weaker than you.” – Koro Sensei

“To a young person for whom everything comes easily, the pain of defeat can be a much needed wake up call.” – Koro Sensei

“The world will always be filled with injustice. If you have time to give up or hold a grudge against that injustice, then use that time to enjoy battling those injustices instead.” – Koro Sensei

“Those who fail to apply themselves who at the moment of truth decide to sit back and let the chips fall where they may, are destined for disappointment.” – Koro Sensei

“I study too, you know. How could I teach anyone if I didn’t grow and learn day by day?” – Koro Sensei

Irina Jelavic Quotes

“Whatever you kids decide, think it through first. Feelings are difficult to kill, but they’re a lot harder to ressurect.” – Irina Jelavic

Asana Gakuho Quotes

“Did you know, I once took down a black belt on my third day of Karate lessons? The first day, I was soundly beaten you understand, by some 30-something… There was so much pain I vomited. I’d never known such an agonizing defeat. What do you suppose I did on day 2? I observed. Consumed by flames of my humiliation. Certain were I to lose again, I would be mortified to a point of insanity, that I would, in effect, die of madness. On day 3 I crushed my sensei without him landing a single blow. THAT, is the lesson of defeat.” – Asano Gakuho

“Don’t let that confidence be your undoing my boy. Things change. The scales can tip in the favor of the rabble in an instant. The elite do well to take heed.” – Asana Gakuho

“Those at the top must mind their balance.” – Asana Gakuho

Karasuma Tadaomi Quotes

“If something is possible, carry on as planned. Even if it isn’t possible, do it anyway.” – Karasuma Tadaomi

“Every experience is a tool to clear your path.” It was none other than those students who taught me that.” – Karasuma Tadaomi

Shiota Nagisa Quotes

“Examined from another angle, your faults and weaknesses can be weapons.” – Shiota Nagisa

“It’s all fun and games until things get real.” – Shiota Nagisa

“If that treetop is school, and the ground is this place here… we all found our strength down on the ground. While looking up… and getting looked down on… we learned plenty about how scary heights were before we started climbing. That’s why we can go our own way now. Still… Somewhere along the way we forgot our fear of heights, so we do still fall to the ground every now and then. So learn here. You can go on to school once you have a game plan. That’s my secret lesson, from me to you.” – Shiota Nagisa
