The Karate Kid Part III (1989) Quotes

Daniel LaRusso: I just want to ask you, do you know how to sweep?

Mr. Miyagi: Of course.

Daniel LaRusso: Would you mind showing me how? I’m not asking you to train me. I don’t want you to train me. Just this one thing. Just this one thing. I’d be so appreciative. All you have to give me is one thing. That’s it. Please, please, please you gotta do it. Be a pal.

Mr. Miyagi: You wait here. I be right back.

Daniel LaRusso: Where you going?

Mr. Miyagi: Just wait here.

(Mr. Miyagi returns with a broom…)

Mr. Miyagi: Daniel-san, you hold like this. First, left sweep…

Daniel LaRusso: I decided to take your advice. I’m going to let my confusion go up in smoke. I’m not entering the tournament. I want my karate and your karate to mean something.

Mr. Miyagi: Good decision, Daniel-san. This way no more bruises. Save money on bandage.

Daniel LaRusso: The only thing living inside me right now is a lot of confusion. I have the chance to be the champion again. All I have to do is put my signature to it.

Mr. Miyagi: Or match to it.

Daniel LaRusso: A match to it?

Mr. Miyagi: Hai. Then you watch confusion disappear with the smoke.

Mr. Miyagi: Inside you. Same place your karate come from.

Daniel LaRusso: But my karate comes from you.

Mr. Miyagi: Only root karate come from Miyagi. Just like bonsai choose own way grow because the root is strong. You choose own way. Do karate same reason.

Daniel LaRusso: Yeah, but I do it your way.

Mr. Miyagi: Hai. One day, you do own way.

Daniel LaRusso: But what about your dream? And, Mr. Miyagi, no offense, but you know, if you miss the train this time, there may not be another one for a long, long time.

Mr. Miyagi: Then Miyagi take bus.
