More quotes by Bruce Lee

Image
One rule is to not use complicated techniques unless they are necessary to achieve your goal. First, use simple movements, and if they don't work, then introduce the more complex ones.
Bruce Lee
Image
To take responsibility for one's own actions, good and bad, is something else.
Bruce Lee
Image
Know the difference between a catastrophe and an inconvenience.
Bruce Lee
Image
Self-will seems to be the only virtue that takes no account of man-made laws.
Bruce Lee
Image
The happiness that is derived from excitement is like a brilliant fire- soon it will go out.
Bruce Lee
Image
Recognizing that the power of will is the supreme court over all other departments of my mind, I will exercise daily when I need the urge to act for any purpose and I will form habits designed to bring the power of my will into action at least once daily.
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.
Bruce Lee
Image
Out of chaos, find simplicity, From discord, find harmony.
Bruce Lee
Image
Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.
Bruce Lee
Image
Don't be forecasting evil unless it is what you can guard against. Anxiety is good for nothing if we can't turn it into a defense.
Bruce Lee
Image
If you follow the classical pattern, you are understanding the routine, the tradition, the shadow -- you are not understanding yourself.
Bruce Lee
Image
The meaning of life is that it is to be lived, and it is not to be traded and conceptualized and squeezed into a patter of systems.
Bruce Lee
Image
Choose the positive. You have choice, you are master of your attitude, choose the positive, the constructive. Optimism is a faith that leads to success.
Bruce Lee
Image
Effort within the mind further limits the mind, because effort implies struggle towards a goal and when you have a goal, a purpose, an end in view, you have placed a limit on the mind.
Bruce Lee
Image
A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
Bruce Lee
Image
Life is never stagnation. It is constant movement, un-rhythmic movement, as we as constant change. Things live by moving and gain strength as they go.
Bruce Lee
Image
Training for strength and flexibility is a must. You must use it to support your techniques. Techniques alone are no good if you don't support them with strength and flexibility.
Bruce Lee
Image
The knowledge and skills you have achieved are meant to be forgotten so you can float comfortably in emptiness, without obstruction.
Bruce Lee
Image
What you habitually think largely determines what you will ultimately become.
Bruce Lee
Image
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.
