More quotes by Bruce Lee

Image
All martial art is simply an honest expression of one's body — with a lot of deception in between.
Bruce Lee
Image
If every man would help his neighbor, no man would be without help.
Bruce Lee
Image
Remember no man is really defeated unless he is discouraged.
Bruce Lee
Image
Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end.
Bruce Lee
Image
If you don't want to slip up tomorrow, speak the truth today.
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
To tolerate is to insult.
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
You will never get any more out of this life than you expect.
Bruce Lee
Image
The past is an illusion. You must learn to live in the present and accept yourself for what you are now. What you lack in flexibility and agility you must make up with knowledge and constant practice.
Bruce Lee
Image
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
Image
To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
Bruce Lee
Image
The height of cultivation always runs to simplicity.
Bruce Lee
Image
When you're talking about fighting, as it is, with no rules, well then, baby you'd better train every part of your body!
Bruce Lee
Image
The more relaxed the muscles are, the more energy can flow through the body. Using muscular tensions to try to 'do' the punch or attempting to use brute force to knock someone over will only work to opposite effect.
Bruce Lee
Image
Real living is living for others.
Bruce Lee
Image
He who wants to succeed should learn how to fight, to strive and to suffer. You can acquire a lot in life, if you are prepared to give up a lot to get it.
Bruce Lee
Image
The unfolding of the bare human soul...that is what interests me.
Bruce Lee
Image
Meditation means to be free from all phenomena and calmness means to be internally unperturbed. There will be calmness when one is free from external objects and is not perturbed.
Bruce Lee
Image
Art is never decoration, embellishment instead, it is work of enlightenment. Art, in other words, is a technique for acquiring liberty.
