“Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain.”
Bruce Lee
(1940–1973) Hong Kong-American actor, martial artist, philosopher and filmmaker
As quoted in Bruce Lee : Artist of Life (1999) edited by John R. Little, p. 192
Context: Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely — lay your life before him.
