“In our physical movements, there are those that are natural and others that are not. Through the practice of Karate-do, we can learn to differentiate between the two and also learn to acquire natural movements. We also learn of the power that nature endowed us with and how to use it, for a man has a great deal of hidden power of which he is not aware.” - Master Shigeru Egami "The Way of Karate, Beyond Technique"

"If a technique is to have kime, it must be able to transmit energy frontward. If a technique uses muscular contraction, movement is stopped, thus we do not consider this kime.
We search for the development of internal energy, not only external energy. Due to an optical effect, this energy is not visible. It would be easier to do techniques with muscular contraction, but this way the energy flow is cut.
Master Funakoshi used to say that in Karate-do there must exist an equilibrium between tension and relaxation, but nowadays there are styles that only search for tension.
It is normally believed that when there is contact, the blow has finished but that is truly the moment when it begins." - Master Genshin Hironishi explains his concept of Kime.
