Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

More quotes by Bruce Lee
Running water never grows stale.
Bruce Lee
Are you going to let the obstacles in your life be stumbling blocks or stepping stones? Choose the positive. You are the master of your attitude.
Bruce Lee
One will never get any more than he thinks he can get. YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES. Look back and see your progress - damn the torpedo, full speed ahead!
Bruce Lee
When you say that something is impossible, you have made it impossible.
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
Out of chaos, find simplicity, From discord, find harmony.
Bruce Lee
Self-will seems to be the only virtue that takes no account of man-made laws.
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
Truth has no path. Truth is living and, therefore, changing. Awareness is without choice, without demand, without anxiety in that state of mind, there is perception. To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person. Awareness has no frontier it is giving of your whole being, without exclusion.
Bruce Lee
Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own.
Bruce Lee
The man who is really serious, with the urge to find out what truth is, has no style at all. He lives only in what is.
Bruce Lee
Relationship is the mirror in which you discover yourself - to be is to be related.
Bruce Lee
Recognizing that the power of will is the supreme court over all other departments of my mind, I will exercise daily when I need the urge to act for any purpose and I will form habits designed to bring the power of my will into action at least once daily.
Bruce Lee
If every man would help his neighbor, no man would be without help.
Bruce Lee
Nothingness cannot be defined the softest thing cannot be snapped.
Bruce Lee
If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Moving, be like water. Still, be like a mirror. Respond like an echo.
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
Learning is definitely not mere imitation, nor is it the ability to accumulate and regurgitate fixed knowledge. Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end.
Bruce Lee
Remember no man is really defeated unless he is discouraged.
Bruce Lee
Can you look at a situation without naming it? Naming it, making it a word, causes fear.
