Bruce Lee Quotes

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

Bring the mind into sharp focus and make it alert so that it can immediately intuit truth, which is everywhere. The mind must be emancipated from old habits, prejudices, restrictive thought processes and even ordinary thought itself.

Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.

Always be yourself and have faith in yourself. Do not go out and look for a successful personality and try to duplicate it.

Use only that which works, and take it from any place you can find it.

Set patterns, incapable of adaptability, of pliability, only offer a better cage. Truth is outside of all patterns.

I am not afraid of a person who knows 10000 kicks. But I am afraid of a person who knows one kick but practices it for 10000 times.

Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless, like water. Be water, my friend.
