Bruce Lee
A quality martial artist is always ready for any move, and trains oneself invincible.
Bruce Lee
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

I am not teaching you anything. I just help you to explore yourself.
Bruce Lee
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
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
Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one
Bruce Lee
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
Seek freedom from the conformity of styles
Bruce Lee
A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
Bruce Lee
One should be in harmony with, not in opposition to, the strength and force of the opposition. This means that one should do nothing that is not natural or spontaneous the important thing is not to strain in any way.
