More quotes by Bruce Lee

Image
Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.
Bruce Lee
Image
Recognizing that the power of will is the supreme court over all other departments of my mind, I will exercise daily when I need the urge to act for any purpose and I will form habits designed to bring the power of my will into action at least once daily.
Bruce Lee
Image
Everyone wants to learn how to win, but no one wants to learn how to accept defeat.
Bruce Lee
Image
Learning is a constant process of discovery - a process without end.
Bruce Lee
Image
The aim of art is to project an inner vision into the world.
Bruce Lee
Image
The measure of the moral worth of a man is his happiness. The better the man, the more happiness. Happiness is the synonym of well-being
Bruce Lee
Image
The happiness that is derived from excitement is like a brilliant fire- soon it will go out.
Bruce Lee
Image
The doubters said, Man can not fly, The doers said, Maybe, but we'll try, And finally soared In the morning glow While non-believers Watched from below.

Running water never grows stale.

Art lives where absolute freedom is, because where it is not, there can be no creativity.
Bruce Lee
Image
You will never get any more out of this life than you expect.
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.
Bruce Lee
Image
For something that is static, fixed, dead, there can be a way or a definite path but not for anything that is moving and living.
Bruce Lee
Image
Life is never stagnation. It is constant movement, un-rhythmic movement, as we as constant change. Things live by moving and gain strength as they go.
Bruce Lee
Image
A good martial artist does not become tense, but ready. Not thinking, yet not dreaming. Ready for whatever may come. When the opponent expands, I contract and when he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, I do not hit, it hits all by itself.
Bruce Lee
Image
Art is never decoration, embellishment instead, it is work of enlightenment. Art, in other words, is a technique for acquiring liberty.
Bruce Lee
Image
A quality martial artist is always ready for any move, and trains oneself invincible.
Bruce Lee
Image
Obey the principles without being bound by them.
Bruce Lee
Image
Don’t indulge in any unnecessary, sophisticated moves
Bruce Lee
Image
The possession of anything begins in the mind.
