Founder of Jeet Kune Do hybrid martial arts philosophy, an actor, director, philosopher, and an absolute icon of the 20th century, Lee Jun-fan, a.k.a. Bruce Lee, was truly a legendary man. Because of his work, Bruce Lee is credited to have bridged the gap between the West and the East and introduced the ideas of Hong Kong martial art movies, much to our delight, to Hollywood. Although Lee’s death was horribly untimely at the age of 32 in 1973, he still left a vast legacy to pore over. Besides being a martial arts professional, he was also a philosopher, and that gave us a myriad of inspiring quotes to remember him by and to base our beliefs on. So, here we are with an article full of Bruce Lee quotes, and trust us, each of them is as inspiring and as moving as anything else you’ll read today.
Being a master of martial arts allowed Bruce Lee to spread his word and his teachings to some of the most famous people of the time. His roster of disciples consisted of the controversial yet ingenious director Roman Polanski and his ill-fated wife Sharon Tate, who has recently been reborn in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time In Hollywood movie. Of course, Quentin didn’t leave out the chance to include the martial arts master in his movie, too! However, if this pair of Hollywood celebrities aren’t that impressive to you, you’d be amazed to know that Chuck Norris was also one of Bruce Lee’s pupils. Yup, THE Chuck Norris. Well, and in his training, Bruce Lee didn’t spare any wise words, which, of course, settled down nicely into many books and found their way into our article.
So, prepare yourself for some quality inspiring quotes and moving phrases - they are just a karate chop down below. Once you are there, be sure to give your vote for the famous quote you’d like to see on the top of this list, and after all that is well and done - share this article with your friends.
