The Three Laws of Robotics by Isaac Asimov

I am a sci-fi fan and Isaac Asimov is a favorite. I especially like his robotics books and short stories. You may remember Will Smith starred in a modern movie called, "I Robot." In those stories the three laws of robotics spurred me to think, "can this be applied to a karate-ka?"

Here are the original:

The three laws of Robotics:

1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
2) A robot must obey orders givein to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Here are mine:

The Three Rules of Martial Artists

1. A martial artist may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A martial artist must adhere to higher moral principles except where such principles would conflict with the first rule.
3. A martial artist must protect themselves as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second rule.

Ok, tell me, does it work?
