Bruce Lee
Image
Do not run away let go. Do not seek for it will come when least expected.
Bruce Lee

Many people dedicate their lives to actualizing a concept of what they should be like, rather than actualizing themselves. This difference between self-actualization and self-image actualization is very important. Most people live only for their 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
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.
Bruce Lee
Image
True refinement seeks simplicity.
Bruce Lee
Image
To see is to be decieved. To hear is to be lied to. To FEEL is to believe.
Bruce Lee
Image
What is true stillness? Stillness in movement.
Bruce Lee
Image
Obey the principles without being bound by them.
Bruce Lee
Image
Faith is a state of mind that can be conditioned through self-discipline. Faith will accomplish.
Bruce Lee
Image
Where there is no style, there is no slave. Martial Arts mean honestly expressing yourself. No style. No slave.
Bruce Lee
Image
Remember, success is a journey not a destination. Have faith in your ability. You will do just fine.
