    • Quotes

      Master Yang: You must meditate.

      'Tiger' Chen Lin Hu: Why?

      Master Yang: To clear your mind, guide your Chi and gain control.

      'Tiger' Chen Lin Hu: I have control.

      Master Yang: No, you have power not control.

      'Tiger' Chen Lin Hu: Power is control.

      Master Yang: That is an illusion.

      'Tiger' Chen Lin Hu: It is not an illusion... it's reality. I live in it, you don't. What I learn here I can't use out there.

      Master Yang: How can you use what you have not yet learned? Only when you've dispelled these illusions, will you find your way again.

    A Valuable Lesson.
    Man of Tai Chi. I must say, this movie portrays everything Tai Chi teaches us about ourselves, our inner demons, and how easy it is to loose yourself once you achieve Power. How Control is even more important then simply having great power. After Watching it I must admit, IMDb's review by davidvdb2 (Belgium) Signifies that Movie Critics do not know jack when it comes to the Spirit of Martial Arts and its Many uses. I urge you to see this movie, its not the greatest; But it has a valuable lesson that we must all learn while walking upon our own path to becoming a better Person, not just in Body, but in Spirit. Yin & Yang. Inner & Outer Form. Keanu Reeves Did his Homework and thus deserves an A+!
