Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily.

Dear Students and Friends
 I found out two things recently.  One is that Tokyo University grading system is A,B, C, and F.
Most students will receive A's. Under this condition most students GPA will be 4.0 and they will have far advance grades to receive a full scholarship in the USA over "the private universities" students from Japan.
The other is I learn in the university that the Shogun's decree is above that of the emperor.  Japanese bureaucrats misinterpreted the decree that the imperial government gave to the supreme commander of pacifying the barbarians in  the eastern Japan(SEI I TaiSHOGUN) that it was in the war time but they said throughout any time.  So emperors hesitated of giving the title to Minamono no Yoritomo or Ashikaga Taga Takauji. They will be superior commanders above the emperor's decrees.( the Legal History of Japan )

Today's quote:
"Only those who have the patience to do simple things
perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily."
簡単なことを完璧にやる根気強い人たちだけが、難しいことを難なくこなす能力を身につける。
Johann Schiller
German poet and Dramatist
1759-1805
