More quotes by Bruce Lee
The martial arts are based upon understanding, hard work and a total comprehension of skills. Power training and the use of force are easy, but total comprehension of all of the skills of the martial arts is very difficult to achieve.
Bruce Lee
The perfect way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike all will then be clear. Make a hairbreadth difference and heaven and earth are set apart if you want the truth to stand clear before you, never be for or against. The struggle between 'for' and 'against' is the mind's worst disease.
Bruce Lee
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
Because one does not want to be disturbed, to be made uncertain, he establishes a pattern of conduct, of thought, a pattern of relationships to man. He then becomes a slave to the pattern and takes the pattern to be the real thing.
Bruce Lee
To tell the truth, I could beat anybody in the world.
Bruce Lee
A good teacher protects his pupils from his own influence.
Bruce Lee
To see is to be decieved. To hear is to be lied to. To FEEL is to believe.
Bruce Lee
All martial art is simply an honest expression of one's body — with a lot of deception in between.
Bruce Lee
Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
Bruce Lee
There are too many stars and too few actors.
Bruce Lee
Can you look at a situation without naming it? Naming it, making it a word, causes fear.
Bruce Lee
Now I see that I will never find the light Unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, Consuming myself.
Bruce Lee
Knowledge earns you power, character earns you respect.
Bruce Lee
All fixed set patterns are incapable of adaptability or pliability. The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.
Bruce Lee
I am not teaching you anything. I just help you to explore yourself.
Bruce Lee
Relationship is the mirror in which you discover yourself - to be is to be related.
Bruce Lee
True refinement seeks simplicity.
Bruce Lee
You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup.
Bruce Lee
Sorrows are our best educator. A man can see further through a tear than a telescope.
Bruce Lee
Art is never decoration, embellishment instead, it is work of enlightenment. Art, in other words, is a technique for acquiring liberty.
