    “It is better to avoid than to run, better to run than to de-escalate, better to de-escalate than to fight, better to fight than to die.”

    “Develop the habit of doing unpleasant things quickly and without hesitation. If you are going to jump in the cold water, jump in the cold water. If you need to get up, get your ass out of bed. Do the dishes that need doing. Finish the hard jobs at work while everyone else is coming up with excuses to get out of them.”

    “A wise man once told me about the trouble with going into law enforcement as a career, "No matter what any bleeding-heart tells you, 3% of the people in the world are scum. The trouble is, if you spent 80% of your time with that 3%, you start thinking that 80% of the world is scum.”

    “When I tell someone that the most important thing a young woman can do to avoid being raped is to avoid places with lots of young men (and if you absolutely have to go to those place, don't drink) the dumb responses range from: 'Girls have a right to have fun' to 'You're just blaming the victim' all the way up to the ludicrous, 'A woman should be able to walk naked into a biker bar and not be bothered.' These are political ideals. They might even be the way the world should work. They are not the way the world actually works. The responsibility for self-protection has to rest with the potential victim because the potential rapist has no interest whatsoever in her safety or rights. The potential victim is the one who cares.”

    “Martial arts and martial artists often try to do it all. They teach self-defense and sparring and streetfighting and fitness and personal development, as if they were the same thing. They aren鈥檛 even related.”
    Rory Miller, Meditations on Violence: A Comparison of Martial Arts Training & Real World Violence

  • #7
    Rory Miller
    “Self-defense is clearly my focus in this book. What is it? It is recovery from stupidity or bad luck, from finding yourself in a position you would have given almost anything to prevent. It is difficult to train for because of the surprise element and because you may be injured before you are aware of the conflict. The critical element is to overcome the shock and surprise so that you can act, to 鈥渂eat the freeze.鈥 Self-defense is about recovery. The ideal is to prevent the situation.”

    Fitness is objectively the most important effect of martial arts training. The physical skills and self-defense aspects of training will never save as many people from violence as the conditioning will save from early heart attacks.”

    Assault isn鈥檛 just for criminals. Elite military teams, hostage rescue, SWAT, and entry teams use this mindset as much as criminals do. They don鈥檛 want to be tested or find out what their limitations are, they want to get the job done and go home. The mindset is implacable and predatory. They use surprise, superior numbers, and superior weapons鈥攅very cheat they can, and they practice. On the rare, rare occasions when my team made a fast entry and someone actually fought, the only emotion that I registered was that I was offended that they resisted, and we rolled right over the threat(s) like a force of nature.”

    “People are stupid and talk a lot of shit. But only in the abstract. They are loud-mouthed in their machismo and silent in their cowardice.”

    “If you can smell things, you鈥檙e breathing right.鈥 What I found was that consciously smelling the Threat not only kept me breathing but was both calming and put me in a predator mindset.[39] It was very, very effective.”

    “There is an old saying, 鈥淣ever ascribe to malice what can better be explained by stupidity.鈥 That鈥檚 good advice.”

    Rory Miller
    “Do not interpret anything I say here to mean 鈥渄on鈥檛 fight back.鈥 I鈥檓 also not going to patronize you with half-truths or platitudes. This is ugly on many levels: the level of the incident and the level of social conditioning to 鈥済et along,鈥 which can make it so much harder to decide not to be a victim. This means that if and when a woman chooses to fight, it must be a total effort. In many cases, there is no level of force that will simply discourage a male attacker. He must be incapacitated. This is my advice and I think this mindset is critical, but the actual statistics are less grim鈥攎any assailants do run away and do not escalate when they encounter unexpected resistance.”

    “it is difficult to solve a problem that you are almost entirely ignorant about. You cannot work for peace while ignoring violence any more than a doctor can create treatments while refusing to study disease.”

    “Violence never solved anything.鈥 This platitude is so patently and obviously false that it takes some pretty special mental gymnastics to say it, much less believe it. The fact is that some things, especially dangerous things happening very fast, can ONLY be solved by violence. This adage frequently infuriates professionals because sometimes the problem they have solved with violence was their own survival or the survival of someone they loved. Survival is pretty hard to devalue.”
    Rory Miller, Violence: A Writer's Guide

    “Someone is going to read this and think, 鈥淚 have a right to go anywhere I want. Just because something is dangerous doesn鈥檛 take away my rights.鈥 Let鈥檚 get this over with now. Defending yourself is not and never has been about rights鈥攔ights are those things that the civilized members of society agree everyone deserves. When you hit the ground and taste blood in your mouth, when a steel-toed boot slams your head into a curb, when a knife slips under the waistband of your skirt and a hand is wrapped around your throat, the civilized agreement on how people should be treated is not an issue.”

    “if someone says, 鈥淪hut the fuck up or I鈥檓 going to beat your ass,鈥 and it escalates into a fight you will have real trouble proving self-defense... because you didn鈥檛 simply shut the fuck up. Self-defense is about defending your body, not your pride. If this threat display devolves into a fight, you were engaged in the Monkey Dance. You were not defending yourself. 鈥”

    “If I label someone as 鈥渂ad,鈥 I know my own meaning: he will hurt someone to get what he wants. If I use 鈥渆vil鈥 it means he will hurt someone even when he doesn鈥檛 want anything.”

    “The very essence of self-defense is a thin list of things that might get you out alive when you are already screwed.”

    “If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”
