Ten Wise Sentences from Bruce Lee.

1. 'Don't think, feel! It's like a finger pointing away to the moon. Don't concentrate on the finger, or you will miss all the heavenwy gwory.' (As this is the quote that was stated to me on the control room floor in this format, and is the inspiration for the list, I must leave it in its originally quoted, rather dubious condition—apologies.)
2. 'Love is like a friendship caught on fire. in the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.'
3. 'The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.'
4. 'I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations and you're not in this world to live up to mine.'
5. 'If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of.'
6. 'Choose the positive. You have choice. You are master of your attitude. Choose the positive, the constructive. Optimism is a faith that leads to success.'
7. 'Knowing is not enough, you must apply; willing is not enough, you must do.'
8.'In Buddhism, there is no place for using effort. Just be ordinary and nothing special. Eat your food and move your bowels, pass your water and when you are tired go and lie down. The ignorant will laugh at me, but the wise will inderstand.'
9. 'Do not run away; let go. Do not seek, for it will come when least expected.' (What will come? I'm excited.)
10. 'Don't pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.'
