About This Quote

When you are in a situation where you are fighting, you should always turn your back to the enemy. Turning your back to the enemy allows you to use all of your power against him, even if he is stronger. This is because you are drawing on your power, not his. It is said that people who have never been in battle are afraid of the shadow because they don't know how to fight it. They are afraid that if they turn to face the enemy, their power will be drained away.
