I hated every minute of training, but I said, “Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion – Muhammad Ali
Anyone who knows anything about Bruce Lee can’t help but be impressed by the amount he accomplished in his relatively short life. Not only was he an amazing martial artist, but he was also an tremendous actor and philosopher as well.
Here are some of his best quotes:
- “The “moment” has no yesterday or tomorrow. It is not the result of thought and therefore has no time.”
- “Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough: we must do.”
- “Learning is never cumulative, it is a movement of knowing which has no beginning and no end.”
- “The measure of the moral worth of a man is his happiness. The better the man, the more happiness. Happiness is the synonym of well-being”
- ” Real living is living for others.”
- “Defeat is a state of mind; no one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality.”
- “Never waste energy on worries or negative thoughts, all problems are brought into existence -drop them.”
- “A goal is not always meant to be reached. It often serves simply as something to aim at.”
- “Because one does not want to be disturbed, to be made uncertain, he establishes a pattern of conduct, of thought, a pattern of relationship to man etc. Then he becomes a slave to the patter and takes the pattern to be the real thing.”
- “Zen is not “attained” by mirror-wiping mediation, but by “self-forgetfulness in the existential ‘present’ of life here and now.” We do not “come”, we “are.” Don’t strive to become, but be.”
- “Those who are unaware they are walking in darkness will never seek the light.”
- “Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.”
- “To grow, to discover, we need involvement which is something I experience everyday, sometimes good, sometimes frustrating.”
