“Don’t get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. 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.” – Bruce Lee

Nice. I watch SYTYCD too. I won’t tell anyone. 🙂
Mike – I am an avid watcher of SYTYCD. And when I saw Jose’s deal about Bruce Lee, I remembered the interview. I had done a post on SoCal SC on 6.12.09 about “Be water, my friend”, http://www.socalsc.com/page/index.php?menu=blog&page=blog&hide&id=2234. I have always been a fan of Bruce Lee and his teachings. I read and re-read his teachings, the Book of Five Rings and the Art of War. Great knowledge in those books. And who better than Bruce Lee for a Kung Fu Movie. I think he was the last one to whoop Chuck Norris’ ass.
Be water, my friend.
Here is another good article.
