More quotes by Bruce Lee
It's the law of averages: put in more, come out with more.
Bruce Lee
It is not a shame to be knocked down by other people. The important thing is to ask when you're being knocked down, 'Why am I being knocked down?' If a person can reflect in this way, then there is hope for this person.
Bruce Lee
Faith is a state of mind that can be conditioned through self-discipline. Faith will accomplish.
Bruce Lee
Put every great teacher in a room, and they'd agree about everything, but put their disciples in there and they'd argue about everything.
Bruce Lee
Learning is never cumulative, it is a movement of knowing which has no beginning and no end.
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
I am not afraid of a person who knows 10000 kicks. But I am afraid of a person who knows one kick but practices it for 10000 times.
Bruce Lee
We [tend to] have more faith in what we imitate than in what we originate. We [often feel that we] cannot derive a sense of absolute certitude from anything which has its root in us. The most poignant sense of insecurity comes from standing alone we are not alone when we imitate.
Bruce Lee
We shall find the answer when we examine the problem, the problem is never apart from the answer, the problem IS the answer, understanding the problem dissolves the problem.
Bruce Lee
Be like water, my friend.
Bruce Lee
My strength comes from my abdomen. It's the center of gravity and the source of real power.
Bruce Lee
I treasure the memory of the past misfortunes. It has added more to my bank of fortitude.
Bruce Lee
Remember, success is a journey not a destination. Have faith in your ability. You will do just fine.
