“There is no mystery about my style. My movements are simple, direct and non-classical. The extraordinary part of it lies in its simplicity. Every movement in Jeet Kune-Do is being so of itself. There is nothing artificial about it. I always believe that the easy way is the right way.”

Do not be concerned with escaping safely- lay your life before him!!”

“The perfect way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike; all will then be clear.

The struggle between “for” and “against” is the mind’s worst disease.”
