Quotes of the famous.

"If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them."

Bruce Lee

Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to yourself and others.

"Like everyone else you want to learn the way to win, but never to accept the way to lose — to accept defeat. To learn to die is to be liberated from it. So when tomorrow comes you must free your ambitious mind and learn the art of dying!" - Bruce Lee

This is the one I couldn't remember verbatim.

Blood is NOT thicker than water."From many a wise man that have lived life"

 

[Kizzattack]

I could quote hundreds of aphorism's attributed to Bruce Lee.

“The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.”

“All fixed set patterns are incapable of adaptability or pliability. The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.”

“Using no way as a way, using no limitations as a limitation.”

“Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not you go out and look for a successful personality an duplicate it.”

Yummybud, you can learn from this one, as can many other people: “If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done.”

His philosophy was very applicable in every day life. There's another quote that I think is in the Tao of Jeet Kune Do, where Lee says something like, 'Compare yourself to yourself, not to other people', which I find that so many people do, then lose motivation in what they were aiming for because they see somebody that they perceive as better than themselves. This line of thought stops people from improving themselves and being the best they can be.

If you want to convince someone that prohibition is bad, why not use a quote from someone most likely smarter than yourself:
"The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the Prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this." Albert Einstein

 

[Molson]

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

 

[Vakenmeister]

"In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity."
