More quotes by Bruce Lee

Image
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
The best fighter is not a Boxer, Karate or Judo man. The best fighter is someone who can adapt on any style. He kicks too good for a Boxer, throws too good for a Karate man, and punches too good for a Judo man.
Bruce Lee
Image
The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.
Bruce Lee
Image
Low aim, not failure, is the crime.
Bruce Lee
Image
Let the spirit out - Discard all thoughts of reward, all hopes of praise and fears of blame, all awareness of one's bodily self. And, finally closing the avenues of sense perception, let the spirit out, as it will.
Bruce Lee
Image
Real living is living for others.
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
I am not teaching you anything. I just help you to explore yourself.
Bruce Lee
Image
You and your opponent are one. There is a coexisting relationship between you. You coexist with your opponent and become his complement, absorbing his attack and using his force to overcome him.
Bruce Lee
Image
You must accept the fact that there is no help but self-help. I cannot tell you how to gain freedom since freedom exists within you.
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
Long-term consistency trumps short-term intensity.
Bruce Lee
Image
Learning is definitely not mere imitation, nor is it the ability to accumulate and regurgitate fixed knowledge. Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end.
Bruce Lee
Image
Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.
Bruce Lee
Image
Seek freedom from the conformity of styles
Bruce Lee
Image
What you habitually think largely determines what you will ultimately become.
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
Willing is not enough, one must apply.
Bruce Lee
Image
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.
