Image
Before me now there is only one real fact -- Death. The truth I have been seeking -- this truth is Death. Yet Death is also a seeker. Forever seeking me. So -- we have met at last. And I am prepared. I am at peace. Because I will conquer death with death.

Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own.
Bruce Lee

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 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.

Cease negative mental chattering. If you think a thing is impossible, you'll make it impossible. Pessimism blunts the tools you need to succeed.
Bruce Lee
Image
It is useless to try to stir the dirt Out of the muddy water, As it will become murkier. But leave it alone, And if it should be cleared It will become clear by itself.
Bruce Lee
Image
Those who are unaware they are walking in darkness will never seek the light.
Bruce Lee
Image
The stillness in stillness is not the real stillness only when there is stillness in movement does the universal rhythm manifest.
Bruce Lee
Image
Are you going to let the obstacles in your life be stumbling blocks or stepping stones? Choose the positive. You are the master of your attitude.
Bruce Lee
Image
No matter what, you must let your inner light guide you out of the darkness.
Bruce Lee
Image
He who wants to succeed should learn how to fight, to strive and to suffer. You can acquire a lot in life, if you are prepared to give up a lot to get it.
Bruce Lee
Image
What comes after victory? Why do people value victory so much? What is 'glory'? What kind of victory is 'glorious'?
Bruce Lee
Image
The happiness that is derived from excitement is like a brilliant fire- soon it will go out.
