More quotes by Bruce Lee
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
Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.
Bruce Lee
Be a calm beholder of what is happening around you.
Bruce Lee
There’s only one basic principle of self-defense- you must apply the most effective weapon, as soon as possible, to the most vulnerable target.
Bruce Lee
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
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
An intelligent mind is an inquiring mind. It is not satisfied with explanation, with conclusions. Nor is it a mind that believes, because belief is again another form of conclusion.
Bruce Lee
Self-will seems to be the only virtue that takes no account of man-made laws.
Bruce Lee
The most important thing to me is, how, in the process of learning how to use my body, can I come to understand myself ?
Bruce Lee
Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
Bruce Lee
Martial arts, like any art, is an unrestricted athletic expression of an individual soul.
Bruce Lee
Art lives where absolute freedom is, because where it is not, there can be no creativity.
Bruce Lee
Everybody has to think for himself. A right way for a big man may not be a right way for a small man. A right way for someone who is slow may not be a right way for someone who is quick. Each person must understand his weaknesses and his strengths.
Bruce Lee
What Is, is more important than What Should Be.
Bruce Lee
Meditation means to be free from all phenomena and calmness means to be internally unperturbed. There will be calmness when one is free from external objects and is not perturbed.
Bruce Lee
Live a life worth remembering.
Bruce Lee
A kung fu man lives without being dependant on the opinions of others, and a master, unlike the beginner, holds himself in reserve. He is quiet and unassuming, with no desire to show off.
Bruce Lee
Your state of mind is everything.
Bruce Lee
To take responsibility for one's own actions, good and bad, is something else.
Bruce Lee
Either push your limits or die.
Bruce Lee
