Quotations by Bruce Lee

You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend. 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. You have choice, you are master of your attitude, choose the positive, the constructive. Optimism is a faith that leads to success.

On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you.

Be not for or against. To waste time is to expend it thoughtlessly or carelessly. We all have time to either spend or waste and it is our decision what to do with it.

But once passed, it is gone forever. To know oneself is to study one self in action with another person. Relationship is a process of self evaluation and self revelation. Relationship is the mirror in which you discover yourself — to be is to be related.

It is constant movement, un-rhythmic movement, as we as constant change. Things live by moving and gain strength as they go. The medicine for my suffering I had within me from the very beginning but I did not take it. My ailment came from within myself, but I did not observe it, until this moment.

Now I see that I will never find the light unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, consuming myself. But sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who thinks he can. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick. Hack away at the unessential. This difference between self-actualization and self-image actualization is very important.

Most people live only for their image. If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of. Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts, it is glorious even to fail. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.

Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do. Concentration is the root of all the higher abilities in man. If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life.

When the going gets tough, there are these 40 Bruce Lee quotes to keep you going.

For it is easy to criticise and break down the spirit of others, but to know yourself takes a lifetime. Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it. Those who are unaware they are walking in darkness will never seek the light.

Is it properly to ask you if in case I decide to write an article with quotes from famous people as Bruce Lee, do I need a permission? At the moment my blog is not monetized but I would like to. How did you proceed when you wrote this article. The images are subject to copyright though.
