About First, you must empty your cup.

Any true master will tell you, "You have not stopped learning until you have passed on." Strive and learn all your life, so that you will be remembered as a master in your passing. Work to be known as just and righteous. We live but a century. Our imprint lives on as long as existence itself shall. Let the imprint be strong and pure.
