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.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
There is an awareness without choice, without any demand, an awareness in which there is no anxiety; and in that state of mind there is perception. It is the perception alone that will resolve all your problems.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Recognizing the influence of my subconscious mind over my power of will, I shall take care to submit to it a clear and definite picture of my Major Purpose in life and all minor purposes leading to my major purpose, and I shall keep this picture constantly before my subconscious mind by repeating it daily.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
With adversity you are shocked to higher levels, much like a rain storm that is so violent, but yet afterwards all plant grows.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art calls for complete mastery of techniques, developed by reflection within the soul.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
To express oneself honestly, not lying to oneself; that, my friend, is very hard to do.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Through art our own souls are what we must employ to give a new form and a new meaning to Nature or the world.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art is never decoration, embellishment; instead it is work of enlightenment. Art, in other words, is a technique for acquiring liberty.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
The human soul is what interests me. I live to express myself freely in creation.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art lives where absolute freedom is, because where it is not, there can be no creativity – art has no ego rigidity.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
It is the creative ability of a human being that separates him from all other animals.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
True observation begins when one is devoid of set patterns; freedom of expression occurs when one is beyond system.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
I’m not the type of guy who can sit in the office doing the same routine day in and day out. I have to do something that is creative and interesting to me.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Artists in all fields must learn to observe choicelessly, to digest their observations, and to express them in their work.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art is really the expression of the self. The more complicated and restricted the method, the less the opportunity for the expression of one’s original sense of freedom.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art is the perfection of nature and life through the artist, who has supreme control of technique and is thereby liberated from it.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art reaches its greatest peak when devoid of self-consciousness. Freedom discovers man the moment he loses concern over what impression he is making or about to make.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
The true artist has no public; he works for the sheer joy of it, with an element of playfulness, of casualness.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
I never wanted a job in an office or any job that I had to work eight hours a day at – day in and day out. I don’t think I could have stood it.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Art is the way of the Absolute and to the essence of human life – creative action, with sensitivity, that positive state of innocence.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Logic’s central problem is the distinction between correct and incorrect argument.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
One should get rid of this obtruding self – or ego-consciousness – and apply himself to the work to be done as if nothing particular were taking place at the moment.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
It is the ego that stands rigidly against things coming from the outside, and it is this “ego rigidity” that makes it impossible for us to accept everything that confronts us.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Just as the maintaining of good health may require the taking of unpleasant medicine, so the condition of being able to do the things we enjoy often requires the performance of a few we don’t.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Philosophy is itself the disease for which it pretends to be the cure: the wise man does not pursue wisdom but lives his life, and therein precisely does his wisdom lie.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
When my tutor assisted me in choosing my courses, he advised me to take up philosophy because of my inquisitiveness. He said, “philosophy will tell you what man lives for”.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
So it is a successful combination of both. It is not pure naturalness, or pure unnaturalness. The ideal is unnatural naturalness or natural unnaturalness.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Here is natural instinct, and there is control. You are to combine the two in harmony. If you have one to the extreme you will be very unscientific; if you have another to the extreme, you become a mechanical man, no longer human being.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
In a time when everything goes well, my mind is pampered with enjoyment, possessiveness, etc. Only in times of adversity, privation, or mishap, does my mind function and think properly of my state. This close examination of self strengthens my mind and leads me to understand and be understood.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
As for the future, that is a time and a place where every worthy ambition you posses is within your grasp.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
The present? Well, think of it in terms of challenges and opportunities, and the rewards available for the application of your talents and energies.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
There is no need to exert oneself in special cultivation outside the daily round of living.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
The moment we stop analyzing and let go, we can start really seeing, feeling – as one whole.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Anxiety is the gap between the “now” and the “then”. SO if you are in the “now”, you can’t be anxious, because your excitement flows immediately into ongoing spontaneous activity.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Just watch choicelessly and in the watching lies the wonder. It is not an ideal, an end to be desired. The watching is a state of “being” already, not a state of “becoming”.
Quote by -Bruce Lee
Don’t think – feel. Feeling exists here and now when not interrupted and dissected by ideas or concepts.
