“I always seek the good that is in people and leave the bad to Him who made mankind and knows how to round off the corners.”

“It is the foregiver who is freed in foregiving.”

“He who loves practice without theory is like the sailor who boards ship without a rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast.”

“Practice all movements slow and fast, soft and hard; the effectiveness of Jeet Kune-Do depends on split-second timing and reflexive action, which can be achieved only through repetitious practice.”

“Ours has not been unadulterated nonviolence in thought, word and deed.”
