I bring you, the philosophy of the late Bruce Lee!

5 Bruce Lee-isms:

  • On Mentality:
    Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless – like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
  • On Potential:
    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.
  • On Love:
    Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
  • On Forgiveness:
    Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.
  • On Immortality:
    The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.
