it is hard to be humble. Muhammad Ali When you can whip any man in the world, you never know peace. Muhammad Ali Our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal. John F. Kennedy We are what we think, all that we are arises from out thoughts, with our thoughts we make our world. Buddah Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. Confucius I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop. Confucius Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in getting up every time we do. Confucius When anger rises, think of the consequences. Confucius Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart. Confucius All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him. Buddha Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule. Buddha I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act. Buddha In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then beleive them to be true. Buddha It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways. Buddha Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life. Buddha Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue. Buddha The mind is everything. What you think you become. Buddha There is nothing more dreadful than the habit of doubt. Doubt separates people. It is a poison that disintegrates friendships and breaks up pleasant relations. It is a thorn that irritates and hurts; it is a sword that kills. Buddha What we think, we become. Buddha You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger. Buddha A warrior does not give up what he loves, he finds the love in what he does I call myself a Peaceful Warrior... because the battles we fight are on the inside A warrior is not about perfection or victory or invulnerability. He's about absolute vulnerability. There are no ordinary moments. Everyone wants to tell you what to do and what's good for you. They don't want you to find your own answers, they want you to believe theirs. I want you to stop gathering information from the outside and start gathering it from the inside. People are not theirs thoughts, they think they are, and it brings them all kinds of sadness Life has just three rules? Socrates: And you already know them... Dan Millman: Paradox, humour, and change. Socrates: Paradox... Dan Millman: Life is a mystery. Don't waste time trying to figure it out. Socrates: Humour... Dan Millman: Keep a sense of humour, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure. Socrates: Change... Dan Millman: Know that nothing stays the same. Death isn't sad. The sad thing is: most people don't live at all. Do you know what's the difference between me and you? Socrates: You practice gymnastics, I practice everything! “All fixed set patterns are incapable of adaptability or pliability. The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.” Bruce Lee quote “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” Bruce Lee quote “Showing off is the fool's idea of glory.” brad103 Bruce Lee quote “Simplicity is the key to brilliance” tecnico Bruce Lee quote “Forget about winning and losing, forget about pride and pain” VASHTEN Bruce Lee quote “Let an opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let an opponent smash into your flesh and you fracture his bone; let an opponent fracture your bone and you take his life! Do not be concerned with your escaping safely; lay your life before him!” VASHTEN Bruce Lee quote “Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.” Bruce Lee quote Real living is living for others.” brad103 Bruce Lee quote “Take things as they are. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick.” Bruce Lee quote “As long as I can remember I feel I have had this great creative and spiritual force within me that is greater than faith, greater than ambition, greater than confidence, greater than determination, greater than vision. It is all these combined. My brain becomes magnetized with this dominating force which I hold in my hand.” Bruce Lee quote “If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of.” Bruce Lee quote “The less effort, the faster and more powerful you will be.” Bruce Lee quote “Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.” brad103 Bruce Lee quote “It's not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.” Bruce Lee quote “To me, the extraordinary aspect of martial arts lies in its simplicity. The easy way is also the right way, and martial arts is nothing at all special; the closer to the true way of martial arts, the less wastage of expression there is.” “Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.” Bruce Lee quote “"To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person."” brad103 Bruce Lee quote “Success is how high you bounce when you hit the bottom.” General George S. Patton quote “Let the spirit out - Discard all thoughts of reward, all hopes of praise and fears of blame, all awareness of one's bodily self. And, finally closing the avenues of sense perception, let the spirit out, as it will.” Bruce Lee quote “"It's not what you give, it's the way you give it."” Bruce Lee If you think a thing is impossible, you'll make it impossible.” brad103 Bruce Lee quote “A good martial artist does not become tense but ready. Not thinking yet not dreaming, ready for whatever may come. A martial artist has to take responsibility for himself and face the consequences of his own doing. To have no technique, there is no opponent, because the word 'I' does not exist. When the opponent expands I contract and when he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, 'I' do not hit, 'It' hits all by itself.” “A fight is not won by one punch or kick. Either learn to endure or hire a bodyguard.” smeezmo Bruce Lee quote You know what I want to think of myself? As a human being. because, I mean I don't want to be like 'As Confucius say,' but under the sky, under the heavens there is but one family. It just so happens that people are different.” brad103 Bruce Lee quote “Knowing is not enough, you must apply; willing is not enough, you must do.” Bruce Lee quote I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations and you're not in this world to live up to mine.” Bruce Lee quote The great mistake is to anticipate the outcome of the engagement; you ought not to be thinking of whether it ends in victory or in defeat. Let nature take its course, and your tools will strike at the right moment..” drummerkid06 Bruce Lee quote “What is, is” VASHTEN Bruce Lee quote The future looks extremely bright indeed, with lots of possibilities ahead - big possibilities. Like the song says, "We've just begun."” Bruce Lee quote “If mere mechanical efficiency can make everyone a martial artist, then all is well. Unfortunately, combat, like freedom, is something that can not be preconceived.” Bruce Lee quote “Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and 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.” “Courage is not the absence of fear, it is the ability to act in the presence of fear.” jizo Bruce Lee quote “May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't.” General George S. Patton quote “A man must know his destiny… if he does not recognize it, then he is lost. By this I mean, once, twice, or at the very most, three times, fate will reach out and tap a man on the shoulder… if he has the imagination, he will turn around and fate will point out to him what fork in the road he should take, if he has the guts, he will take it.” Spartan_71 General George S. Patton quote “Nobody ever defended anything successfully, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.” General George S. Patton quote “Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.” General George S. Patton quote Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of the men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.” General George S. Patton quote “There is a time to take counsel of your fears, and there is a time to never listen to any fear.” General George S. Patton quote “I am a soldier, I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight.” General George S. Patton quote “Fixed fortifications are a monument to the stupidity of man.” dmg General George S.
