More quotes by Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
Either push your limits or die.
Bruce Lee
Awareness is without choice, without demand, without anxiety in that state of mind, there is perception.

Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
Like everyone else, you want to learn the way to win, but never to accept the way to lose - to accept defeat. To learn to die is to be liberated from it. So when tomorrow comes you must free your ambitious mind and learn the art of dying!
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
To be what I term a 'quality' human being one has to be transparently real and have the courage to be what he is.
Bruce Lee
The best fighter is not a Boxer, Karate or Judo man. The best fighter is someone who can adapt on any style. He kicks too good for a Boxer, throws too good for a Karate man, and punches too good for a Judo man.
Bruce Lee
If you want to learn to swim jump into the water. On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you.

Bruce Lee
Life itself is your teacher, and you are in a state of constant learning.
Bruce Lee
Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end.
Bruce Lee
