"Hero" just kicks ass. I have the DVD and I'm still moved by it.



OUR LAND


Broken Sword's Highest Ideal

In the first stage, man and sword become one and each other.
Here, even a blade of grass can be used as a lethal weapon.


In the next stage, the sword reside not in the hand but in the heart.
Even without a weapon, the warrior can slay his enemy from a hundred paces.


But the ultimate ideal, when the sword disappears altogether. The warrior embraces all that is around him. The desire to kill no longer exists. Only peace remains.



A warrior's ultimate act is to lay down his sword.


An Ideal mirrored throughout time.

The Strategic Air Command Motto: Peace is our Profession

The difference between the tiger and the dragon: The Tiger only reacts, the Dragon is aware of the awesome power it has and chooses when to battle.

In the Book: The Five People You Meet in Heaven, the warrior's heaven is to see a land unscarred by war.
