More quotes by Bruce Lee
It is true that the mental aspect of kung-fu is the desired end however, to achieve this end, technical skill must come first.
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
If you want to learn to swim jump into the water. On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you.
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
What you habitually think largely determines what you will ultimately become.
Bruce Lee
Zen is not “attained” by mirror-wiping mediation, but by “self-forgetfulness in the existential 'present' of life here and now.” We do not “come”, we “are.” Don't strive to become, but be.
Bruce Lee
A self-willed man has no other aim than his own growth.
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.
Bruce Lee
You know what I want to think of myself? As a human being. Because, I mean I don't want to be like As Confucius say, but under the sky, under the heavens there is but one family. It just so happens man that people are different.
Bruce Lee
To me, ultimately, martial arts means honestly expressing yourself.
Bruce Lee
I am not afraid of a person who knows 10000 kicks. But I am afraid of a person who knows one kick but practices it for 10000 times.
Bruce Lee
The abdominal and waist region coordinate all parts of the body and act as the center or generator. Therefore, you can promote the ability to control the body's action and master your will more easily.
Bruce Lee
When you point to the moon, what do you see in front of your finger Your task is to feel, not to think, when you can understand that the lesson will be learned.
Bruce Lee
A self-willed man obeys a different law, the one law I, too, hold absolutely sacred the human law in himself, his own individual will.
Bruce Lee
Take what's useful, discard what is not.
Bruce Lee
Its not what happens that counts... It's how you react.
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
A martial artist has to take responsibility for himself and accept the consequences of his own doing.
Bruce Lee
