Everything you do, if not in a relaxed state will be done at a lesser level than you are proficient. Thus the tensed expert marksman will aim at a level less than his/her student.

More quotes by Bruce Lee
Let nature take its course and your tools will strike at the right moment.
Bruce Lee
Instead of dedicating your life to actualize a concept of what you should be like, actualize yourself.
Bruce Lee
Evaluation by others is not a guide for me.
Bruce Lee
Knowledge earns you power, character earns you respect.
Bruce Lee
One does not accumulate but eliminate. It is not daily increase but daily decrease. The height of cultivation always runs to simplicity.
Bruce Lee
To see is to be decieved. To hear is to be lied to. To FEEL is to believe.
Bruce Lee
The Now is indivisible. Completeness, the now, is an absence of the conscious mind to strive to divide that which is indivisible. For once the completeness of things is taken apart it is no longer complete.
Bruce Lee
To live is to express oneself freely
Bruce Lee
Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one's potential.
Bruce Lee
Voidness is that which stands right in the middle between this and that. The void is all-inclusive, having no opposite--there is nothing which it excludes or opposes. It is living void, because all forms come out of it and whoever realizes the void is filled with life and power and the love of all beings.
Bruce Lee
I don't believe in getting something for nothing.
Bruce Lee
When finger point at moon, don't look at finger or you'll miss the moon.
Bruce Lee
I've come to understand that life is best lived, not conceptualized.
Bruce Lee
Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.
Bruce Lee
Use karate, judo, aikido, or any style to build your counter-offensive. It will be interesting!
Bruce Lee
Stop wasting time in playing a role or a concept. Instead, learn to ACTUALIZE YOURSELF, your potential.
Bruce Lee
Reality is apparent when one ceases to compare.
Bruce Lee
One should be in harmony with, not in opposition to, the strength and force of the opposition. This means that one should do nothing that is not natural or spontaneous the important thing is not to strain in any way.
Bruce Lee
Efficiency is anything that scores.
Bruce Lee
In Buddhism, there is no place for using effort. Just be ordinary and nothing special. Eat your food, move your bowels, pass water and when you're tired go and lie down. The ignorant will laugh at me, but the wise will understand.
