    " Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend."

    "In the spring of 1959, Lee got into another street fight, and the police were called. Until his late teens, Lee's street fights became more frequent and included beating the son of a feared triad family." wiki

    It’s just a list of quotes copied from the internet with a poorly written intro. A better start would be Lee’s own book, The Tao of Jeet Kun Do which is available free online in various formats, e.g. https://archive.org/details/pdfy-SP1dBDr6xLGrVfF9/mode/2up

    Plenty of other good books around too, even if not free. On philosophy, this one is supposed to be good: Striking Thoughts: Bruce Lee's Wisdom for Daily Living

  • Bruce also said "people who waste your time are wasting your life"

  • For all the quotes, didn't he die of an overdose ?

      An autopsy revealed that Bruce Lee most likely died from an adverse reaction to an ingredient in the prescription Equagesic tablet given to him by Betty Ting Pei. The presence of cannabis (marijuana leaves) was also found in his stomach, but not in an amount that could kill him (it is believed that he chewed it). Yet, it may have been this combination of cannabis with one or more of the ingredients in the Equagesic tablet that caused his brain to swell from 1,400 to 1,575 grams (13%), leading to a cerebral edema, a condition that is defined as an excess accumulation of water in the intra- and/or extra-cellular spaces of the brain. The condition can be brought on by an allergic reaction, such as in Bruce's case.

      Although it is uncommon, it is possible that Bruce was allergic to cannabis (marijuana). This allergic reaction could have been heightened by the Equagesic tablet that he ingested. Doctors officially declared Bruce Lee's passing as "death by misadventure," but the doctors who had treated Bruce for a similar prior incident (see below) believe that Bruce died from the marijuana he ingested. The type of marijuana he was taking (Nepal hashish) was one of the most near-lethal strains of unrefined hashish.

      (The analgesic known as Equagesic is a painkiller that combines Aspirin and the muscle relaxant meprobamate. Some forms may contain the opioid ethoheptazine. The drug can be taken to relieve tension headaches, however it was banned from use in the UK in 2002, as less toxic alternatives became available.)

    "Unfortunately, he died in 1973 while he is acting in the film called Enter the Dragon."

    I thought he died during the making of Game of Death? I think Enter the Dragon was completed.

    • Yeah, Wikipedia states filming was complete and he was re-recording some dialogue for the film.
