A Great Tree

"Karate-do is a noble martial art, and the reader can rest assured that those ... who boast of being able to perform outlandish feats like stripping flesh or plucking out ribs, really knows nothing about karate.  They are playing around in the leaves and branches of a great tree, without the slightest concept of the trunk."
