Mr. Miyagi’s 20 Most Famous Quotes From the Karate Kid Movies
The Karate Kid movies never would have been the same without the franchise’s main guide, Mr. Miyagi, played by Pat Morita, leading the way and teaching Daniel LaRusso everything he knows about karate, self-defense, and the importance of balance. Known for his wise, inspiring, and occasionally funny ways, Mr. Miyagi was a very untraditional teacher, encouraging Daniel to do household chores before showing him how the significance of those movements would create a sense of muscle memory in self-defense techniques. Throughout the series, Mr. Miyagi has many direct and roundabout pieces of advice or insightful comments about life, happiness, and how balance is the key to a good life.
