Bug Hunter Cat<p>I was a disciple of Master Lin Ching Sung between the late 80s and early 90s. With him I learned everything from Kung Fu, Yiquan and Taijiquan to Traditional Chinese Medicine. But perhaps the most important teaching they were not martial or medical techniques.<br>There are three phrases that I remember every time the possibility of conflict arises.<br>1) Never fight when angry or out of hatred.<br>2) Fools fall by themselves, there is no need to hit them.<br>3) Don't argue with imbeciles.</p><p>Those three things taught me not to have the need to fight. Not feeling fear or anger and avoiding troublesome people is the best martial art.
