Bring the mind to a sharp focus and make it alert so that it can immediately intuit truth, which is everywhere.
Bruce Lee
Image
Evaluation by others is not a guide for me.
Bruce Lee
Image
Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water.
Bruce Lee
Image
I'm not a master. I'm a student-master, meaning that I have the knowledge of a master and the expertise of a master, but I'm still learning. So I'm a student-master. I don't believe in the word 'master.' I consider the master as such when they close the casket.
Bruce Lee
Image
More and more I believe in the fact that you have two hands and two legs, and the thing is how to make good use of yourself - and that's about it.
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee
Image
Having totality means being capable of following what is, because what is is constantly moving and constantly changing. If one is anchored to a particular view, one will not be able to follow the swift movement of what is.
Bruce Lee
Image
I'm moving and not moving at all. I'm like the moon underneath the waves that ever go on rolling and rocking. It is not, I am doing this, but rather, an inner realization that this is happening through me, or it is doing this for me. The consciousness of self is the greatest hindrance to the proper execution of all physical action.
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
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
Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
Bruce Lee
Image
As long as we separate this oneness into two we won't achieve realization.
Bruce Lee
Image
Give recognition where it is due. Compliments stimulate more effort and desire to improve. Be generous with honest praising.
Bruce Lee
Image
Your state of mind is everything.
