The words you’re about to hear were put together with real care, with serious time and dedication.

We went through Bruce Lee’s films, his iconic TV interviews, his most powerful moments, and gathered the quotes that truly represent who he was.

We brought them here together just for you.

Believe me, you can be sure that every minute you spend on this video will be well worth it.

This is what it is.

Okay.

You’re talking to Long Street Ped by James Francesca.

I said 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 in a teapot, it becomes the teapot.

Now water can flow or it can crash.

Be water, my friend.

like that.

You see, I see.

I get the idea.

I get the the power behind it.

The most dangerous person is the one who listens, thinks, and observes.

One of the best lessons you can learn in life is to master how to remain calm.

A wise man can always be found alone.

A weak man can always be found in a crowd.

Focus on making yourself better, not on thinking that you are better.

Control your anger.

If you have anger towards others, they control you.

When you’re talking about fighting as it is with no rules, well then baby, you’d better train every part of your body.

If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.

To be the best, you must be able to handle the worst.

If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule.

Never lie to yourself.

Patience can cook a stone.

Running water never gets old, so you just have to keep floating.

As you think, so shall you become.

The best fighter is never angry.

Ignorance is the root and stem of all evil.

If you only talk about water, it will never quench your thirst.

If you want to know water, you have to drink it and swim in it.

Think before trusting anyone because there are many types of people in this world.

An angry person makes a fool of himself very quickly.

If you think a thing is impossible, you’ll only make it impossible.

Love and respect.

Without respect, love cannot go long.

If you don’t want to slip up tomorrow, speak the truth today.

A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.

Do not correct a fool or he will hate you.

Correct the wise man and he will appreciate you.

Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are the weeds that strangle confidence.

I am not teaching you anything.

I just help you to explore yourself.

Knowledge will give you power, but character gives respect.

He who has peace of mind disturbs neither himself nor another.

All truths are not to be told.

We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.

Rule your mind or it will rule you.

Experience is the hardest kind of teacher.

It gives you the test first and the lesson afterward.

Have patience.

Old things are difficult before they become easy.

When you accept yourself, the whole world accepts you.

Calm is a superpower.

When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know.

But if you listen, you may learn something new.

Remember, no man is really defeated unless he is discouraged.

Every situation in life is temporary.

So when life is good, make sure you enjoy and receive it fully.

And when life is not so good, remember that it will not last forever and better days are on the way.

The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.

The more I learn, the more I realize how much I still have to learn.

Those who are unaware they are walking in darkness will never seek the light.

Life itself is your teacher and you are in a state of constant learning.

It is far better to be alone than to be in bad company.

If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.

Ever tried? Ever failed? No matter.

Try again, fail again, fail better.

Being entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens.

But often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.

Always remember that you’re absolutely unique, just like everyone else.

When you build in silence, people don’t know what to attack.

You only fail when you stop trying.

Your struggle is part of your story.

Excuses make today easier but tomorrow harder.

Discipline makes today hard but tomorrow easier.

Be teachable.

You’re not always right.

Never make a permanent decision based on temporary feelings.

Two things define you.

your patience when you have nothing and your attitude when you have everything.

A negative mind will never give you a positive life.

Believing in yourself is the first secret of success.

Your greatest asset in the world is your mindset.

If you can stay positive in a negative situation, you win.

Never tolerate disrespect, not even from yourself.

You can’t reach what’s in front of you until you let go of what’s behind you.

Everyone leaves.

Learn how to survive alone.

Before you act, decide.

Before you decide, think.

Before you think, focus.

Your comfort zone is killing your potential.

Your only limit is you.

Words without action mean nothing.

When you learn to survive without anyone, you can survive anything.

Failure is the greatest teacher.

Die with memories, not dreams.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

The big lesson in life is never be scared of anyone or anything.

Do not pray for an easy life.

Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.

The important thing is not to stop questioning.

The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.

The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking.

It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.

Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.

Not everything that can be counted counts and not everything that counts can be counted.

I speak to everyone in the same way.

Whether he is the garbage man or the president of the university.

The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.

It’s not that I’m so smart.

It’s just that I stay with problems longer.

The only source of knowledge is experience.

There are not more than five musical notes.

Yet, the combinations of these five give rise to more melodies than can ever be heard.

When the enemy is relaxed, make them toil.

When full, starve them.

When settled, make them move.

Who wishes to fight must first count the cost.

If you wait by the river long enough, the bodies of your enemies will float by.

Know yourself, and you will win all battles.

To win 100 victories in 100 battles is not the acme of skill.

To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.

Build your opponent a golden bridge to retreat across.

Be extremely subtle even to the point of formlessness.

Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness.

Thereby, you can be the director of the opponent’s fate.

The whole secret lies in confusing the enemy so that he cannot fathom our real intent.

What the ancients called a clever fighter is one who not only wins, but excels in winning with ease.

Rouse him and learn the principle of his activity or inactivity.

Force him to reveal himself so as to find out his vulnerable spots.

You have to believe in yourself.

If the mind is willing, the flesh could go on and on without many things.

Thus, the expert in battle moved the enemy and is not moved by him.

Attack is the secret of defense.

Defense is the planning of an attack.

Great results can be achieved with small forces.

Ponder and deliberate before you make a move.

If quick, I survive.

If not quick, I am lost.

This is death.

Ultimate excellence lies not in winning every battle, but in defeating the enemy without ever fighting.

If you ignore both your enemy and yourself, you are certain to be in peril.

Move not unless you see an advantage.

Use not your troops unless there is something to be gained.

Fight not unless the position is critical.

Wheels of justice grind slow, but grind fine.

It is easy to love your friend, but sometimes the hardest lesson to learn is to love your enemy.

If his forces are united, separate them.

You can’t trust a man who has nothing to lose.

Plan for what is difficult while it is easy.

Do what is great while it is small.

If he sends reinforcements everywhere, he will be weak everywhere.

Be where your enemy is not.

An enemy is a friend who knows too much about you.

Disorder came from order.

Fear came from courage.

Weakness came from strength.

If your friend is friends with your enemy, it means that you should not hang out with this friend.

Beware of sugar that is mixed with poison.

Beware of the fly that sat on a dead snake.

Who does not know the evils of war cannot appreciate its benefits.

Therefore, just as water retains no constant shape, so in warfare there are no constant conditions.

Regard your soldiers as your children.

They will follow you into the deepest valleys.

Look on them as your own beloved sons.

A leader leads by example, not by force.

He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.

In making tactical dispositions, the highest pitch you can attain is to conceal them.

Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory.

Tactics without strategy is noise before defeat.

The captured soldiers should be kindly treated and kept.

One need not destroy one’s enemy.

One need only destroy his willingness to engage.

Every animal with blood in its veins and horns on its head will fight when it is attacked.

Never trust a friend who is silent about your flaws.

You are responsible for your own happiness.

If you expect others to make you happy, you will always end up being disappointed.

Never argue with a fool.

Onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.

There are two ways to be happy.

Change your situation or change your mindset towards it.

Never stop making yourself better, no matter what it takes.

Just build yourself silently.

Strong people don’t have a lot of friends.

They walk alone, fight alone, smile alone, and cry alone.

Don’t be afraid of the storm.

The darker it gets, the stronger you will become.

When a toxic person can no longer control you, they will try to control how others see you.

Once you feel you are avoided by someone, never disturb them again.

To heal a wound, you need to stop touching it.

If you can become an eagle, do not strive to become the first among the jack doors.

It is difficult to walk at one and the same time many paths of life.

Everyone is a moon and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.

We must accept finite disappointment but never lose infinite hope.

All of us do not have equal talent but all of us have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness.

Only light can do that.

Hate cannot drive out hate.

Only love can do that.

Honesty is the best policy when there is money in it.

Someone else is dreaming about the things you take for granted.

Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today.

Life is about trying things, making mistakes, and learning from them.

I learned early that silence is strength.

The intelligent man never shares his next move, his pain, or his deepest love.

That is where true power lives.

Three things a wise man never reveals.

Where he is going, what he is feeling, and who he truly loves.

Protect them.

They are your real weapons.

Behind every failure, there’s an experience you’ve gained.

You are the artist of your own life.

Don’t give the paintbrush to anyone else.

To be clever, avoid negative self-t talk, avoid multitasking, avoid information overload, and avoid delaying any task.

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.

Books are your unfailing companions.

A true friend is a second self.

In times of war, the law falls silent.

Instead of worrying about what you cannot do, shift your energy to what you can create.

Some goodbyes set you free.

Happiness is not the absence of problems.

It’s the ability to deal with them.

When sexual intercourse decreases, its heat fades.

When a person is deprived of the fire of this passion, his heart gradually hardens and the spaces between the two bodies are born like a wall built with silence.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Out of difficulties grow miracles.

Once you face your fear, nothing is ever as hard as you think.

The days that you don’t want to do anything are the days that you need to do the most.

Patience outlasts.

Silence gathers secrets.

Adaptation hides in plain sight.

and precision strikes with calculated finality.

The quiet hunter never rushes.

Instead, they blend with shadows, letting their enemies stumble over their own mistakes.

A single move, welltimed and precise, is worth a thousand reckless strikes.

The deadliest force is not the loud roar, but the silent whisper that unsettles.

The calm before the storm, and the invisible blade that strikes before it’s seen.
