Citáty Bruce Lee
„Don't fear failure. — Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.“
— Bruce Lee, Striking Thoughts: Bruce Lee's Wisdom for Daily Living
p. 121
„There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.“
— Bruce Lee
Context: There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.
As quoted in The Art of Expressing the Human Body (1998) edited by John R. Little, p. 23
„A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.“
— Bruce Lee
p. 121; this likely derives from the observation of Joseph Joubert: The goal is not always meant to be reached, but to serve as a mark for our aim.
As translated by Katharine Lyttelton, in Joubert : A Selection from His Thoughts (1899)
