Seijuro HIKO

Remember this. No matter how strong you are, you’re only human. The buddha has no need of violence.

Oboete oke, donna ni tsuyokunaoru to, omae wa ikkai no ningen. Hotoke ya shura ni naru hitsuyou wa nain da. (覚えておけ　どんなに強くなろうと、お前は一介の人間。仏や修羅になる必要はないんだ。)

A sword is a weapon. Kenjutsu is the art of killing. Whatever pretty words you use, this is its true nature.

“Ken wa kyouki, kenjutsu wa satsujinjutsu” “Donna kireigoto ya odaimoku wo kuchi ni shitemo sore ga shinjitsu” (「剣は凶器、剣術は殺人術」「どんな綺麗事やお題目を口にしてもそれが真実」)
