KungFu Fighting

Well, not like real fighting, but some nice quotes from Bruce Lee I happened to come across:
  • A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.
  • Obey the principles without being bound by them.
  • All fixed set patterns are incapable of adaptability or pliability. The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.
  • To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.
  • Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.
  • Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one’s potential.
  • If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.

  1. Loved this: "To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person."
