More quotes by Bruce Lee
As you think, you shall become
Bruce Lee
When you feel pain, you know that you are still alive.
Bruce Lee
To reach me, you must move to me. Your attack offers me an opportunity to intercept you.
Bruce Lee
True refinement seeks simplicity.
Bruce Lee
A kung fu man who was really good was not proud at all. Pride emphasizes the superiority of one's status. There has to be fear and insecurity in pride, because when you aim at being highly esteemed and achieve such status, you automatically start to worry about losing status.
Bruce Lee
Where there is no style, there is no slave. Martial Arts mean honestly expressing yourself. No style. No slave.
Bruce Lee
It's the law of averages: put in more, come out with more.
Bruce Lee
You and your opponent are one. There is a coexisting relationship between you. You coexist with your opponent and become his complement, absorbing his attack and using his force to overcome him.
Bruce Lee
The perfect way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike all will then be clear. Make a hairbreadth difference and heaven and earth are set apart if you want the truth to stand clear before you, never be for or against. The struggle between 'for' and 'against' is the mind's worst disease.
Bruce Lee
A good teacher protects his pupils from his own influence.
Bruce Lee
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
One rule is to not use complicated techniques unless they are necessary to achieve your goal. First, use simple movements, and if they don't work, then introduce the more complex ones.
Bruce Lee
The idea is that flowing water never goes stale, so just keep on flowing.
Bruce Lee
Satori - in the awakening from a dream. Awakening and self-realization and seeing into one's own being - these are synonymous.
Bruce Lee
Don't fear failure. Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.
Bruce Lee
The possession of anything begins in the mind.
Bruce Lee
The core of understanding lies in the individual mind, and until that is touched everything is uncertain and superficial. Truth cannot be perceived until we come to fully understand our potential and ourselves. After all, knowledge in the martial arts ultimately means self-knowledge.
Bruce Lee
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
A good martial artist does not become tense, but ready. Not thinking, yet not dreaming. Ready for whatever may come. When the opponent expands, I contract and when he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, I do not hit, it hits all by itself.
Bruce Lee
Let the spirit out - Discard all thoughts of reward, all hopes of praise and fears of blame, all awareness of one's bodily self. And, finally closing the avenues of sense perception, let the spirit out, as it will.
Bruce Lee
