Quotes by John Allyn (?)

“A man will only be as long as his life but his name will be for all time.”
― John Allyn, The 47 Ronin Story

“Remember, there’s sacrifice involved in any kind of life. Even the man who chooses the safe way has to give up the thrill of combat. The point is that once you know what you want, you must be prepared to sacrifice everything to get it.”
― John Allyn, 47 Ronin

“You see,” he went on, “some people live all their lives without knowing which path is right. They’re buffeted by this wind or that and never really know where they’re going. That’s largely the fate of the commoners—those who have no choice over their destiny. For those of us born as samurai, life is something else. We know the path of duty and we follow it without question.”
― John Allyn, 47 Ronin
