I come to you with only Karate, Empty Hands. I have no weapons, but should I be forced to defend myself, my principles or my honor, should it be a matter of life or death, of right or wrong, then here are my weapons, Karate, my Empty Hands.
Nobody should be forced to face evil with empty hands.
I have nothing to give but my heart so full and these empty hands." "They're not empty now.
With emptie hands men may no haukes lure.
Nothing has been given to me.
I keep my hands empty for the sake of what I have had in them.
A man, at times, gets something for nothing, but it will, in his hands, amount to nothing.
I have the consolation of having added nothing to my private fortune during my public service, and of retiring with hands clean as they are empty.
