Miyamoto Musashi quotes from Vagabond (by release date)

Shinmen Takezō: I have to become stronger. I want to be strong so that I won't have to depend on anybody. Yes, I'll become stronger. I'm going to become invincible under the sun.

Miyamoto Musashi: I'm prepared to die. But I don't plan on just throwing away.

Miyamoto Musashi: No need to stay out in the woods until morning. I'll make the first move. Catching the opponent off guard is just another strategy.

Miyamoto Musashi: I've never had a proper master. I've been raised by the mountains and rivers. Some have even referred to me as "demon child" and "beast." I dont have the words to explain any further... But if you really must know, take up your sword and challenge me to a fight. There's really no other way.
