More quotes by 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
Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.
Bruce Lee
Image
Art is the way to the absolute and to the essence of human life. The aim of art is not the one-sided promotion of spirit, soul and senses, but the opening of all human capacities – thought, feeling, will – to the life rhythm of the world of nature. So will the voiceless voice be heard and the self be brought into harmony with it.

Remember, success is a journey not a destination. Have faith in your ability. You will do just fine.
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

A self-willed man has no other aim than his own growth.

Bruce Lee
Image
All knowledge leads to self-knowledge.
Bruce Lee

I refer to my hands, feet and body as the tools of the trade. The hands and feet must be sharpened and improved daily to be efficient.
Bruce Lee
Image
To see is to be decieved. To hear is to be lied to. To FEEL is to believe.
Bruce Lee
Image
A man must constantly exceed his level
Bruce Lee
Image
It's the law of averages: put in more, come out with more.
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
What is true stillness? Stillness in movement.
Bruce Lee
Image
To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
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
The knowledge and skills you have achieved are meant to be forgotten so you can float comfortably in emptiness, without obstruction.
