Its not what happens that counts... It's how you react.
Bruce Lee
Image
To me, ultimately, martial arts means honestly expressing yourself.
Bruce Lee
Image
Learning is never cumulative, it is a movement of knowing which has no beginning and no end.
Bruce Lee
Image
Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own.
Bruce Lee
Image
Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.
Bruce Lee
Image
To me, the extraordinary aspect of martial arts lies in its simplicity. The easy way is also the right way, and martial arts is nothing at all special the closer to the true way of martial arts, the less wastage of expression there is.
Bruce Lee
Image
Art lives where absolute freedom is, because where it is not, there can be no creativity.
Bruce Lee
Image
A kung fu man lives without being dependant on the opinions of others, and a master, unlike the beginner, holds himself in reserve. He is quiet and unassuming, with no desire to show off.
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

It's the law of averages: put in more, come out with more.
Bruce Lee
Image
Be a calm beholder of what is happening around you.
Bruce Lee

The word superstar is an ilusion
Bruce Lee

For something that is static, fixed, dead, there can be a way or a definite path but not for anything that is moving and living.
Bruce Lee
Image
Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
Bruce Lee
Image
The idea is that flowing water never goes stale, so just keep on flowing.
Bruce Lee
Image
All knowledge leads to self-knowledge.
Bruce Lee
Image
Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Bruce Lee
Image
Observe what is with undivided awareness.
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.
Bruce Lee

The three most difficult things in life are: 1. To keep a secret. 2. To forget an injury. 3. To make good use of leisure.
