In that regard, I am reminded of The Book of Five Rings, a reflection on the zen of individual combat written in 1643 by Miyamoto Musashi, an undefeated samurai sword fighter who wrote that "the Way of the warrior is resolute acceptance of death."  Knowing that opposing counsel sometimes read this blog,  I won’t elaborate further.
