More quotes by Bruce Lee

Image
The athlete who is building muscles though weight training should be very sure to work adequately on speed and flexibility at the same time. In combat, without the prior attributes, a strong man will be like the bull with its colossal strength futilely pursuing the matador or like a low-geared truck chasing a rabbit.

I create opportunities.
Bruce Lee
Image
You must accept the fact that there is no help but self-help. I cannot tell you how to gain freedom since freedom exists within you.
Bruce Lee
Image
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
Image
Art is the way to the absolute and to the essence of human life. The aim of art is not the one-sided promotion of spirit, soul and senses, but the opening of all human capacities – thought, feeling, will – to the life rhythm of the world of nature. So will the voiceless voice be heard and the self be brought into harmony with it.

Be like water, my friend.
Bruce Lee

To spend time is to pass it in a specified manner. To waste time is to expend it thoughtlessly or carelessly. We all have time to either spend or waste and it is our decision what to do with it. But once passed, it is gone forever.
Bruce Lee
Image
Relationship is the mirror in which you discover yourself - to be is to be related.
Bruce Lee
Image
Remember, success is a journey not a destination. Have faith in your ability. You will do just fine.
Bruce Lee
Image
The aim of art is to project an inner vision into the world, to state in aesthetic creation the deepest psychic and personal experiences of a human being. It is to enable those experiences to be intelligible and generally recognized within the total framework of an ideal world.
Bruce Lee
Image
Martial arts, like any art, is an unrestricted athletic expression of an individual soul.
Bruce Lee
Image
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
Image
The happiness that is derived from excitement is like a brilliant fire- soon it will go out.
Bruce Lee

If you want to learn to swim you have to throw yourself in the water.
Bruce Lee
Image
Before me now there is only one real fact -- Death. The truth I have been seeking -- this truth is Death. Yet Death is also a seeker. Forever seeking me. So -- we have met at last. And I am prepared. I am at peace. Because I will conquer death with death.
