More quotes by Bruce Lee

Image
To me, ultimately, martial arts means honestly expressing yourself.
Bruce Lee
Image
But to those who kept saying It can't be done, Never are the victories Or the honors won. But, rather, By the believing, doing kind, While the doubters Watched from far behind.
Bruce Lee
Image
To see is to be decieved. To hear is to be lied to. To FEEL is to believe.
Bruce Lee
Image
We [tend to] have more faith in what we imitate than in what we originate. We [often feel that we] cannot derive a sense of absolute certitude from anything which has its root in us. The most poignant sense of insecurity comes from standing alone we are not alone when we imitate.
Bruce Lee
Image
Low aim, not failure, is the crime.
Bruce Lee
Image
What we are after is the root and not the branches. The root is the real knowledge the branches are surface knowledge. Real knowledge breeds 'body feel' and personal expression surface knowledge breeds mechanical conditioning and imposing limitation and squelches creativity.
Bruce Lee
Image
To understand your fear is the beginning of really seeing.
Bruce Lee
Image
Never waste energy on worries or negative thoughts, all problems are brought into existence -drop them.
Bruce Lee
Image
The doubters said, Man can not fly, The doers said, Maybe, but we'll try, And finally soared In the morning glow While non-believers Watched from below.
Bruce Lee
Image
Now I see that I will never find the light Unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, Consuming myself.
Bruce Lee
Image
The word superstar is an ilusion
Bruce Lee
Image
Because of styles people are separated. Research your own experience, absorb what is useful, reject what is useless, add what is essentially your own.
Bruce Lee
Image
Relationship is the mirror in which you discover yourself - to be is to be related.
Bruce Lee
Image
An instructor should exemplify the things he seeks to teach. It will be of great advantage if you yourself can do all you ask of your students and more.
Bruce Lee
Image
The unfolding of the bare human soul...that is what interests me.
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
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
Everything you do, if not in a relaxed state will be done at a lesser level than you are proficient. Thus the tensed expert marksman will aim at a level less than his/her student.
Bruce Lee

As you think, you shall become
Bruce Lee
Image
We have great work ahead of us, and it needs devotion and much, much energy. To grow, to discover, we need involvement, which is something I experience every day - sometimes good, sometimes frustrating. No matter what, you must let your inner light guide you out of the darkness.
