    Samurai Decor / Incense Holder

    [MMQ ♥’s] Samurai Decor / Incense Holder

    Why We ♥ It: Not only can these miniature terracotta samurai warrior statues be used as incense holders, but they can bring a powerful martial reminder to any room—symbolically representing values such as honor, courage, discipline, respect, and indomitable spirit. And because they can be used with incense, they can also have a calming, presence-of-mind effect.

      “Runners in a race ought to compete and strive to win as hard as they can, but by no means should they trip their competitors or give them a shove. So too in life; it is not wrong to seek after the things useful in life; but to do so while depriving someone else is not just.”

      Ryan Holiday

        “Without trust, words become the hollow sound of a wooden gong. With trust, words become life itself.”

            “Never give in — never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” ~ Winston Churchill

              “How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!” ~ Maya Angelou

                “As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.” 
~ John F. Kennedy

                  “Life to me is the greatest of all games.  The danger lies in treating it as a trivial game, a game to be taken lightly, and a game in which the rules don’t matter much.  The rules matter a great deal.  The game has to be played fairly or it is no game at all.  And even to win the game is not the chief end.  The chief end is to win it honorably and splendidly.” ~ Sir Ernest Shackleton

                    "Live a good, honourable life.  Then when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time." ~ Dalai Lama
