I've come to understand that life is best lived, not conceptualized.
Bruce Lee
Image
Bring the mind into sharp focus and make it alert so that it can immediately intuit truth, which is everywhere. The mind must be emancipated from old habits, prejudices, restrictive thought processes and even ordinary thought itself.
Bruce Lee
Image
Low aim, not failure, is the crime.
Bruce Lee
Image
What comes after victory? Why do people value victory so much? What is 'glory'? What kind of victory is 'glorious'?
Bruce Lee
Image
Live a life worth remembering.
Bruce Lee
Image
I'm not a master. I'm a student-master, meaning that I have the knowledge of a master and the expertise of a master, but I'm still learning. So I'm a student-master. I don't believe in the word 'master.' I consider the master as such when they close the casket.

Training for strength and flexibility is a must. You must use it to support your techniques. Techniques alone are no good if you don't support them with strength and flexibility.
Bruce Lee
Image
The most important thing to me is, how, in the process of learning how to use my body, can I come to understand myself ?
Bruce Lee
Image
Instead of dedicating your life to actualize a concept of what you should be like, actualize yourself.
Bruce Lee
Image
Anxiety is the gap between the NOW and the THEN. So if you are in the NOW, you can't be anxious, because your excitement flows immediately into ongoing spontaneous activity.
Bruce Lee
Image
Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.
Bruce Lee
Image
In order to realize our true self we must be willing to live without being dependent upon the opinion of others.
Bruce Lee
Image
Unfortunately, now in boxing people are only allowed to punch. In Judo, people are only allowed to throw. I do not despise these kinds of martial arts. What I mean is, we now find rigid forms which create differences among clans, and the world of martial art is shattered as a result.
Bruce Lee
Image
Like the cobra, you remain coiled in a loose but compact position and your strike should be felt before it is seen.
Bruce Lee
Image
Life itself is your teacher, and you are in a state of constant learning.
Bruce Lee
Image
For it is easy to criticize and break down the spirit of others, but to know yourself takes a lifetime.
Bruce Lee
Image
Concentration is the root of all the higher abilities in man.
