Bruce Lee; Not only for his incredible ability, his incredible insight and philosophy, but because he brought and opened the eyes of the western world to CMA's

Circumstances hell! I make circumstances! Bruce Lee
Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one's potential. Bruce Lee
I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations and you're not in this world to live up to mine. Bruce Lee
If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. Bruce Lee
Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable. Bruce Lee
Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system. Bruce Lee
Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind. Bruce Lee
Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against. Bruce Lee
The future looks extremely bright indeed, with lots of possibilities ahead - big possibilities. Like the song says, "We've just begun." Bruce Lee
The less effort, the faster and more powerful you will be. Bruce Lee
You just wait. I'm going to be the biggest Chinese Star in the world. Bruce Lee  |

For me, I don't see any "Masters".... just our founder, co-founder, and my current "teacher".

Rep Power: 100 | | For me it's this man.
He embodies that character inspired by martial arts yet unachievable by most of us. He has the single mindedness and determination most of us dream of having. That determination has lead him down a road that has forged his ability into smething mighty. He has experience of situations it has taken a lifetime to acrue, and best of all, he has the inclination to place his students on his shoulders in order that they might reach for the very stars themselves. |
