Bruce Lee's Quotes

Alanda Kariza is a great avant-garde lady in her age. She knows everything she wants to be achieved. She's such an inspiration, as well as a role model. Even a role model also has their role model too, she has Bruce Lee as hers. I couldn't agree more. Bruce Lee is more than an actor, he's also good motivator and an experienced guru. In his 33 years old, he's been achieved great things; successful actor, martial artist, man with strong character. Since he 'said' meaningful quotes which relates much on my life, I'm managed to find for his book, at least his biography (if ever be published) to be his next 'experienced student'. I want to live to the fullest just like him, to achieve goals, to fulfill that empty glass, to bend with wind.

These are several quotes I've taken from Alanda Kariza's blog. May this inspire you, too.
