"To me, the extraordinary aspect of martial..." - Quote by Bruce Lee

“To become a champion requires a good mental attitude toward preparation. You have to accept the most tedious task with pleasure.”

“When you point to the moon, what do you see in front of your finger; Your task is to feel, not to think, when you can understand that the lesson will be learned.”

“The aim of art is to project an inner vision into the world.”

“All types of knowledge ultimately lead to self-knowledge. So, therefore, these people are asking me to teach them, not so much how to defend themselves or how to do somebody in. Rather, they want to learn to express themselves through some movement, be it anger, be it determination or whatever. So, in other words, they're paying me to show them, in combative form, the art of expressing the human body.”

“The martial arts are based upon understanding, hard work and a total comprehension of skills. Power training and the use of force are easy, but total comprehension of all of the skills of the martial arts is very difficult to achieve.”

“The best fighter is not a Boxer, Karate or Judo man. The best fighter is someone who can adapt on any style. He kicks too good for a Boxer, throws too good for a Karate man, and punches too good for a Judo man.”

“This was a very typical time. I was single. All you needed was a cup of tea, a light, and your stereo, you know, and that's what I had.”

“A little House well fill'd, a little Field well till'd, and a little Wife well will'd, are great Riches.”

“Our Constitution is so simple and practical that it is possible always to meet extraordinary needs by changes in emphasis and arrangement without loss of essential form.”
