Therefore, If You Are Attacked,

'heroism' Is Not The Same As Coping. A Man Who Does His Job Properly And Succeeds Through His Own Efforts Is Definitely To Be Commended, But He Is Not A Hero In The Classic Sense Until He Deliberately Lays His Life On The Line For A Cause He Deems To Be Greater Than Himself.

Observe Your Cat. It Is Difficult To Surprise Him. Why? Naturally His Superior Hearing Is Part Of The Answer, But Not All Of It. He Moves Well, Using His Senses Fully. He Is Not Preoccupied With Irrelevancies. He's Not Thinking About His Job Or His Image Or His Income Tax. He Is Putting First Things First, Principally His Physical Security. Do Likewise.

Therefore, If You Are Attacked, Retaliate Instantly. Be Sudden. Be Quick. Speed Is Your Salvation.

Use Your Eyes. Do Not Enter Unfamiliar Areas That You Cannot Observe First. Make It A Practice To Swing Wide Around Corners, Use Window Glass For Rearward Visibility, And Get Something Solid Behind You When You Pause.

The Perfect Fight Is One That Is Over Before The Loser Really Understands What Is Going On. The Perfect Defense Is A Counterattack That Succeeds Before The Assailant Discovers That He Has Bitten Off More Than He Can Chew.
