Even though I, Bruce Lee, may die some day without fulfilling all of my ambitions, I will have no regrets. I did what I wanted to do and what I’ve done, I’ve done with sincerity and to the best of my ability.

There is no such thing as defeat until you admit so yourself, but not until then!

If you want to do your duty properly, you should do just a little more than that.

Don’t strive to become, but be.

The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.

The inner self is the true self.

Do not precede others, always follow them.

Ever since I was a kid, the word “quality” has meant a lot to me.

Empty yourself! Open up! After all, the usefulness of a cup is in its emptiness.

What you habitually think largely determines what you will ultimately become.

A goal is not always meant to be reached. It often serves simply as something to aim at.

To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities

Wait in the calm strength of patience – he that is strong should guard it with tenderness.

One should do nothing that is not natural or spontaneous; the important thing is not to strain in any way.

In order to realize our true self we must be willing to live without being dependent upon the opinion of others. When we are completely self-sufficient we can have no fear of not being esteemed by others.

“Satan takes our circumstances and builds strongholds in our lives—how he wages war on the battlefield of the mind. But, thank God, we have weapons to tear down the strongholds. God doesn’t abandon us and leave us helpless. First Corinthians 10:13 promises us that God will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we can bear, but with every temptation He will also provide the way out, the escape.” 

“You are not free until you have no need to impress anybody.” 

“Actually although they can be connected, the two are very different things. Vine’s” 

“Understanding that we are forgiven and cleansed, and knowing who we are in Christ sets us free from the need to impress others. As long as we know who we are, we don’t have to be overly concerned about what others think of us. Once we know who we are and accept ourselves, we no longer have anything to prove. When we have nothing to prove we can relax and be at ease in every situation.” 

“I finally did a series of teachings called “The Lionhearted Lamb” because I began to get a revelation from God that if I did not have a lamb-like nature, I would not have the power of the Holy Ghost manifesting in my ministry. But at the same time I was told that the righteous are to be as bold as a lion. So then I understood that I needed to be meek, sweet and gentle toward people, but bold, tough and aggressive with the devil—because that is the way he is with us. From” 

“If you are having trouble trusting your ability to hear from God, “step out and find out!” Learning to discern God’s voice is a process. Even if you fall down, you can trust Him to help you find your way again.” 

The main thing is not to expend one’s powers prematurely in an attempt to obtain by force something for which the time is not yet ripe.

Not the biggest or the most successful, but the best quality – with that achieved, comes everything else.

You have that personal obligation to yourself to make yourself the best product possible according to your own terms.
