Great Mr. Miyagi Quotes

Due to the passing of Actor Pat Morita your Uncle Buck had to take a moment to honor him in his greatest roll, that of Mr. Kesuke Miyagi. Here are his best moments of wisdom from the two good Karate Kid movies: (Help from Imdb.com)

The Karate Kid:

Miyagi: Your friend, all karate student, eh? Daniel: Friend? Oh, yeah, those guys. Miyagi: Problem: attitude. Daniel: No the problem is, I'm getting my ass kicked every other day, that's the problem. Miyagi: Hai, because boys have bad attitude. Karate for defense only. Daniel: That's not what these guys are taught. Miyagi: Hai - can see. No such thing a bad student, only bad teacher. Teacher say, student do. Daniel: Oh, great, that solves everything for me. I'll just go down to the school and straighten it out with the teacher, no problem. Miyagi: Now use head for something other than target. Daniel: Hey, I was just kidding about that. Miyagi: Why kidding? Daniel: Because I'd get killed if I go down there. Miyagi: Get killed anyway.

Miyagi: Excuse me, please. Boy cold. Must leave. Kindly remove bottles. Drunk: Kindry do it yourself, Mr. Moto. [Miyagi karate-chops the tops off three beer bottles] Daniel: How did you do that? How did you do that? Miyagi: Don't know. First time.

Miyagi: [sighs] Daniel-san, must talk. Man walk on road. Walk left side, safe. Walk right side, safe. Walk down middle, sooner or later, get squished [makes squish gesture] just like grape. Same here. You karate do "yes," or karate do "no." You karate do "guess so," [makes squish gesture]

Daniel: Hey, what kind of belt do you have? Miyagi: Canvas. JC Penny. Three ninety-eight. You like?

Daniel: What's that guy kneeling like that for? Miyagi: Don't know. Daniel: Don't you know anything you can tell me? Miyagi: Hai. No get hit.

Kreese: [at the Cobra Kai dojo] Class, we have visitors. Fall in behind me. Hai! [approaches Daniel and Miyagi, then speaks to Miyagi] Kreese: I hear you jumped some of my students last night. Miyagi: Afraid facts mixed up. Kreese: You calling Mr. Lawrence a liar? Miyagi: No call no one nothing. Kreese: What are you here for, old man? Miyagi: Come ask leave boy alone. Kreese: What's the matter, the boy can't take care of his own problems? Miyagi: One to one problem, yes. FIVE to one problem, too much ask anyone. Kreese: Is that what's bothering you? The odds? Well, we can fix that. Feel like matching, Mr. Lawrence? Johnny Lawrence: Yes, sensei! Miyagi: No more fighting. Kreese: This is a karate dojo, not a knitting class. You don't come into my dojo, drop a challenge and leave, old man. Now you get your boy on the mat, or you and I will have a major problem. Miyagi: Too much advantage. Your dojo. Kreese: Name a place. Miyagi: Tournament. Kreese: [laughs] You've got real nerve, old man. Real nerve. But I think we can accomodate you. Can't we, Mr. Lawrence? Johnny Lawrence: Yes, sensei. Kreese: Fall in. [Johnny turns and leaves] Miyagi: Ask one more small request. Kreese: Make it fast. Miyagi: Ask leave boy alone to train. Kreese: You're a pushy little bastard, ain't ya? But I like that. I like that! All right. No one touches the prima donna until the tournament. Is that understood? [class responds with "YES SENSEI!!"] Kreese: But if you don't show, it's open season on him...and you. [they nod at each other]

Daniel: You're the best friend I've ever had. Miyagi: You pretty okay too.

(Then there is the drunk, dead wife, ramblings...but you really have to see that to appreciate it...)

The Karate Kid, Part II:

Daniel: You think you could break a log like that? Miyagi: Don't know. Never been attacked by a tree.

Miyagi: Daniel-san, never put passion before principle. Even if win, you lose.

Chozen: Your student disgrace me. I have been dishonored all because of him. Daniel: Hey, whatever happened, I apologized. Chozen: Apology will not give me back my honor. Daniel: Well, neither will this. Chozen: In their eyes it will. No more talk. You cross bridge or I kill her. [Daniel starts to cross the bridge] Miyagi: Daniel-San, this not tournament. This for real.

Miyagi: [repeating Kreese's words] Mercy is for the weak. We do not train to be merciful here. A man face you, he is enemy. Enemy deserve no mercy. [He lets out a karate yell and throws the chop, stopping his hand an inch away from Kreese's face. He honks Kreese's nose, then walks away. Kreese collapses]

When shopping for a sport watch, only bother taking a look at the ones that have the

appearance of durability. You should be able to tell that that product will endure for a vast amount of time. It should be made of thick strong metal.Water

resistance is a good feature to have on your silicone watch. It will ease your mind, just knowing that your

watch will surpass being ruined if by chance you get it wet. You just never know when it could get wet. Taking proper measures in picking out the best product

will definitely pay off! power balance,
zhu zhu pet, Emporio Armani, omega-watch are waiting for your choices. good luck.
