1. “A martial arts practice hall, a dojo, is a place you go to practice being the best you can be. But the true combat in a dojo is not between one person and another as most people believe it to be. The true combat in a martial arts practice hall is between the people within ourselves.”
Michael Gerber

2. “The martial arts are based upon understanding, hard work and a total comprehension of skills. Power training and the use of force are easy, but total comprehension of all of the skills of the martial arts is very difficult to achieve.” Bruce Lee Martial Arts, Understanding, Skills, Hard Work, Mastery
8. “I don’t believe in different ways of fighting now. I mean, unless human beings have 3 arms and 3 legs, then we will have a different way of fighting. But basically, we all have two arms and two legs, so that is why I believe there should be only one way of fighting and that is no way.” Bruce Lee Fighting, Unity, Simplicity, Philosophy, Martial Arts
22. “There’s so much myth and baloney. Like an 80-year-old man able to manhandle a 300-pounder with his little finger. Ridiculous. Or this matter of breaking bricks and boards with the edge of your hand. Now I ask you, did you ever see a brick or a board pick a fight with anybody?” Bruce Lee Myth, Reality, Martial Arts, Truth, Perspective
23. “I hope martial artists are more interested in the root of martial arts and not the different decorative branches, flowers, or leaves. It is futile to argue as to which leaf, which design of branches, or which attractive flower you like; when you understand the root, you understand all its blossoming.” Bruce Lee Root, Martial Arts, Understanding, Growth, Authenticity
29. “I personally do not believe in the word style. Why? Because, unless there are human beings with three arms and four legs, unless we have another group of human beings that are structurally different from us, there can be no different style of fighting.” Bruce Lee Style, Fighting, Individuality, Perspective, Martial Arts
30. “Jeet Kune Do favors formlessness so that it can assume all forms and since Jeet Kune Do has no style, it can fit in with all styles. As a result, Jeet Kune Do utilizes all ways and is bound by none and, likewise, uses any techniques which serve its end.” Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do, Formlessness, Adaptability, Flexibility, Martial Arts
