One day, a European student came to the old Teacher of Chinese martial arts and asked: “Teacher, I am the champion of my country in boxing and French wrestling, what else could you teach me?”
The old master was silent for a while, smiled and said: “Imagine that, while walking around the city, you accidentally wander into the street, where several thugs are waiting, dreaming of robbing you and breaking your ribs.” So, I will teach you not to walk along such streets.
