Fan Theory Imagines Life as a Venom Prequel Movie The internet did its thing and found a shocking way the new sci-fi film might connect to Marvel. Does the idea hold any water though? It is said the warrior's is the twofold Way of pen and sword, and he should have a taste for both Ways. Miyamoto Musashi 宮本 武蔵 (c. 1584 – 13 June 1645) was a famous Japanese swordsman, believed to have been one of the most skilled swordsmen in history. He founded the Hyoho Niten Ichi-ryu, or Nito Ryu style of swordsmanship and wrote Go Rin No Sho (The Book of Five Rings) a classic work on strategy, tactics, and philosophy. Go Rin No Sho The Way of strategy is the Way of nature. When you appreciate the power of nature, knowing the rhythm of any situation, you will be able to hit the enemy naturally and strike naturally. The following synopsis from the first volume "The Ground Book" (or "The Earth Book") summarizes the subjects of all 5 volumes of the work: I take up my brush to explain the true spirit of this Ichi school as it is mirrored in the Way of heaven and Kwannon.
From one thing, know ten thousand things. Do nothing which is of no use. Language does not extend to explaining the Way in detail, but it can be grasped intuitively. Fixedness means a dead hand. Pliability is a living hand. You must bear this in mind. I describe fighting as fire.Houses, bodies, and enemies collapse when their rhythm becomes deranged. In my doctrine, I dislike preconceived, narrow spirit. You must study this well. When your spirit is not in the least clouded, when the clouds of bewilderment clear away, there is the true void.

The Yale Book of Quotations traces this to an authentic Mark Twain quote: Don’t you know, there are some things that can beat smartness and foresight? Awkwardness and stupidity can. The best swordsman in the world doesn’t need to fear the second best swordsman in the world; no, the person for him to be afraid of is some ignorant antagonist who has never had a sword in his hand before; he doesn’t do the thing he ought to. -Mark Twain, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court (1889) Do any readers have any other quotations whose origins they would like me to attempt to trace?The Watchers on the Wall. These are some of the greatest battles ever fought on Game of Thrones, utterly unforgettable sequences due to their depiction of harsh bloodshed and the toll of war. But the success of these scenes rests on the shoulders of the soldiers at the heart of the struggle — warriors whose reputations more than speak for themselves. Some of these people are still alive to tell their tales.
Here's the rundown on the greatest warriors featured on Game of Thrones, both on the show, and in the history books. 1. Brienne of TarthTrue words, but it's hard to tell the difference when discussing Brienne, who wields her Valyrian sword Oathkeeper with power matched by few. Her word is her bond, too; every move she makes today is fueled by her solemn vows to Renly Baratheon and Catelyn Stark, long gone at this point. When it comes to raw strength and endless fealty, Brienne is top of the pack. Before the be-handing, the so-called Kingslayer was one of the most esteemed swordsmen in the Seven Kingdoms. it's hard to defend a man who pushes a boy out a window, his recent reformed-bad-boy image notwithstanding. But even without the hand, Jaime has shown moments of fierce courage, like the moment he pulled a Ron Burgundy and helped Brienne out of the bear pit. 3. The Brothers Clegane Both men are guilty of atrocious crimes. Only one of them gets a pass — and even then, it's a light pass at best, given The Hound's history of violence;
he could have protected Arya Stark every day for the rest of his life, and it never would have made amends for butchering the butcher's boy. But when measured against his brother Gregor — commonly called the Mountain, these days known as the zombified Robert Strong — Sandor is practically a role model. The Red Viper of Dorne accomplished a feat matched by no one else before or since when he toppled the Mountain. Granted, he didn't walk away from the battle unscathed — a mild way to describe the manner in which Gregor popped Oberyn's head like a ripe pimple — but the ill-advised smack talk aside, Oberyn's momentary victory puts him right here on this list. In the books, Daenerys Targaryen's Sun and Stars is never seen in combat. Readers only hear whispers of his barbarism on the battlefield, though the legends are enough to send shivers down the spine. The show turns those rumors into reality in Jason Momoa's one and only action scene, in which he removes another Dothraki's throat with his bare hands.
In the end, he was little more than a drunken buffoon, skewered by a boar. Years before, he was one of the most fearsome fighters in all the land. He ended centuries of Targaryen rule with a single strike from his war hammer, in what's easily one of the single most impactful physical acts in Westeros history. The man on the receiving end of Robert's hammer deserves special recognition as well, as the winner of the Tourney at Harrenhal, one of the most storied songs in Thrones history. What makes the late prince even more special, however, is his reported soft spot for song and poetry, preferring peace to war — at least, that's the word depending on who is telling the story. 8. Everyone at the Tower of Joy The survivors: Eddard Stark and Howland Reed. The dead: Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Morning, and Lyanna Stark, among many others. Win or lose, the warriors who fought at the Dornish stronghold at the end of Robert's Rebellion will remain etched in legend forever, part of the most significant battle in all Westerosi lore.
