Cutting Glasses Fool

More From Stephen Fry

There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. there are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. and then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. the world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: what's up with this glass? excuse me? excuse me? this is my glass? i don't think so. my glass was full! and it was a bigger glass! who's been pinching my beer?

Once committed to fight, cut. everything else is secondary. cut. that is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. there is no rule more important, no commitment that overrides that one. cut. cut from the void, not from bewilderment. cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. cut decisively, resolutely. cut into the enemy’s strength. flow through the gaps in his guard. cut him. cut him down utterly. don’t allow him a breath. crush him. cut him without mercy to the depths of his spirit." -richard rahl
