"The stillness in stillness is not the..." - Quote by Bruce Lee

“Don't be forecasting evil unless it is what you can guard against. Anxiety is good for nothing if we can't turn it into a defense.”

“Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life! Do not be concerned with escaping safely- lay your life before him!!”

“How can there be methods and systems to arrive at something that is living? To that which is static, fixed, dead, there can be a way, a definite path, but not to that which is living. Do not reduce reality to a static thing and then invent methods to reach it. ...Truth has no path. Truth is living and, therefore, changing. It has no resting place, no form, no organized institution, no philosophy. When you see that, you will understand that this living thing is also what you are. You cannot express and be alive through static, put-together form, through stylized movement.”

“It's a wonderful thing to perceive the world and to interact with it and with other people and nature from that deep place of utter stillness, where the compulsion to immediately label and interpret whatever arises around you is no longer there.”

“Who can wait in stillness while the mud settles?”

“Real action is in silent moments.”

“Mass civil disobedience is like an earthquake, a sort of general upheaval on the political plane.”

“Nonviolence, applied to very large masses of mankind, is a new experiment in the history of the world.”

“If I could not walk far and fast, I think I should just explode and perish.”
