Excerpts from Practical Karate:
"The secrets of self-defense can be summed up in the proverbs: 'a wise man avoids danger’ and 'to run away is the best way to win.' Yet, sometimes you are not able to choose these courses. I select here several techniques which you will be able to master with comparative ease, thus protecting yourself more effectively against any unarmed assailant." - M.Nakayama
"Properly learned karate response will teach you to face emergency attack situations or to run--both with confidence. The few minutes a day you spend in practice will never be wasted." - Don Draeger
