Phrase from nearest book

November 13th, 2008

Another blog meme – taken from Stewart Smith:

* Grab the nearest book.
* Open it to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

“The ’spirit of direct communication’ is to learn the true path of Niten Ichiryu and to pass it on.”

Mine is Miyamoto Musashi’s The Book of Five Rings. Honestly. It’s the closest book to hand. I bought it for Ruth and she has studiously not read it.
