It's not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.
Bruce Lee
Image
The meaning of life is that it is to be lived, and it is not to be traded and conceptualized and squeezed into a patter of systems.
Bruce Lee
Image
I have always been a martial artist by choice, an actor by profession, but above all, am actualising myself to be an artist of life.
Bruce Lee
Image
When we hold to the core, the opposite sides are the same if they are seen from the center of the moving circle. I do not experience I am experience. I am not the subject of experience I am that experience. I am awareness. Nothing else can be I or can exist.
Bruce Lee
Image
Now I see that I will never find the light Unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, Consuming myself.

Life itself is your teacher, and you are in a state of constant learning.
Bruce Lee
Image
Art is the way to the absolute and to the essence of human life. The aim of art is not the one-sided promotion of spirit, soul and senses, but the opening of all human capacities – thought, feeling, will – to the life rhythm of the world of nature. So will the voiceless voice be heard and the self be brought into harmony with it.
Bruce Lee
Image
False teachers of the Way of life use flowery words.
Bruce Lee
Image
Because of styles people are separated. Research your own experience, absorb what is useful, reject what is useless, add what is essentially your own.
Bruce Lee
Image
A man must constantly exceed his level
Bruce Lee
Image
Nothingness cannot be defined the softest thing cannot be snapped.
Bruce Lee
Image
Taoist philosophy is essentially monistic. Matter and energy, Yang and Yin, heaven and earth, are conceived of as essentially one or as two coexistent poles of one indivisible whole.
Bruce Lee
Image
To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
Bruce Lee
Image
Out of chaos, find simplicity, From discord, find harmony.
