Bruce Lee quotes about
Out of chaos, find simplicity, From discord, find harmony.
When there is freedom from mechanical conditioning, there is simplicity.
Before I studied the art, a punch to me was just like a punch, a kick just like a kick. After I learned the art, a punch was no longer a punch, a kick no longer a kick. Now that I've understood the art, a punch is just like a punch, a kick just like a kick. The height of cultivation is really nothing special. It is merely simplicity; the ability to express the utmost with the minimum.
Simplicity of expression rather than complexity of form.
Jeet Kune Do does not beat around the bush. It does not take winding detours. It follows a straight line to the objective. Simplicity is the shortest distance between two points.
Simplicity is the key to brilliance.
Fluidity is the way to an empty mind. You must free your ambitious mind and learn the art of dying.
Go toward self-actualization rather than self-image actualization... Search within... for honest self- expression.
I don't believe in different ways of fighting now. I mean, unless human beings have 3 arms and 3 legs, then we will have a different way of fighting. But basically we all have two arms and two legs so that is why I believe there should be only one way of fighting and that is no way.
You need emotional content....
Faith makes it possible to achieve that which man's mind can conceive and believe.
I have come to understand that life is best to be lived and not to be conceptualized. I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies.
The more complicated and restricted the method, the less opportunity for expression of one's original sense of freedom.
Boards don't hit back.
